Wednesday luncheon with Megan McLoughlin, 'Leadership and vision - Australian of the Year SA Local Hero 2019'

This week's exciting Guest Speaker:
Megan McLoughlin, on 'Leadership and vision'
Australian of the Year SA Local Hero 2019'
Megan McLoughlin is the 2019 Australian of the Year SA Local Hero and founder of Herd of Hope, championing organ and tissue donation to the community.
Herd of Hope hit the headlines in 2018, when Megan overcame numerous setbacks and held a cattle drive on Bondi Beach. The charity has sought partnership with the University of South Australia to capture the need for mental health services for those regionally based affected by organ and tissue donation.
Megan grew up in the Barossa Valley, riding horses with her father Jim, one of the most renowned horsemen in Australia. She won five national Australian titles and seven state titles and was the first female Australian to receive a full equine scholarship to study at university in the USA. She continues to ride and compete.
In 2008, serious medical complications left a young Megan legally blind. Shortly after, she found herself with acute renal failure, and was given only weeks to live – until a transplant saved her life. Megan is one of 64 women in the world to deliver two children after a double transplant. This year she has faced two cancer diagnoses, yet continues to focus her energy on improving the lives of others.
While Megan will talk about organ donation, her talk will also focus on her having courage, resilience, vision and leadership.
Megan’s inspiring story of ‘bouncing back’ from some of life’s biggest challenges will inspire us all, providing a positive message of hope and leadership.

Guest Speaker: Geoff Strempel, Director, State Library of SA
Geoff has spent much of his career working in, or providing support to libraries. Prior to being appointed Director of the State Library in September last year he led Public Library Services (a division of the Libraries Board of South Australia) for 10 years. During this time he led significant changes in the South Australian public library network, including the establishment of a Statewide public library consortium - colloquially known as the One Card Network.
He is acutely aware that he, along with his team, is the custodian of the single most important collection of historical material about South Australia, from before its colonisation through to the present day. His passion is both preserving and finding way to share the stories embedded in this collection.
