Children living in rural and remote areas can face greater challenges accessing specialised healthcare and allied health services. Supporting the next generation of paediatric allied health professionals can help strengthen healthcare access and improve outcomes for children and families across regional and remote communities.
The Eleanor Bryant Memorial Fund supports the development of paediatric allied health professionals who work with children in rural and remote Australia. The Fund honours Eleanor’s memory by helping provide opportunities for the next generation of professionals to contribute to paediatric healthcare.
The Eleanor Bryant Memorial Fund Cocktail Party Fundraiser 2026 will take place on Friday, 13 November 2026, from 6:00 PM at The Roof Garden, Club Stand, Flemington Racecourse. The community is invited to an evening of celebration and remembrance, bringing together supporters who want to honour Eleanor’s legacy while contributing to the future of paediatric allied health in regional Australia.
Guests will enjoy drinks, canapés, entertainment, and live and silent auctions throughout the evening. The event’s cocktail dress code also includes a touch of spring racing colour, complementing the iconic Flemington Racecourse setting. Tickets are priced at $300 per person, providing guests with an opportunity to enjoy a memorable evening while contributing to an important cause supporting paediatric healthcare professionals.
Funds raised through the Cocktail Party Fundraiser will help support the next generation of paediatric allied health professionals in rural and remote Australia, helping build professional capacity where specialised services are particularly important. The fundraiser is more than an evening of cocktails and entertainment—it is a celebration of Eleanor’s memory and an investment in the future of paediatric healthcare for children living outside major metropolitan areas.
Put on your spring racing colours and join here on November 13, 2026, to honour Eleanor’s memory and support paediatric allied health professionals in rural and remote Australia.
We are pleased to announce that tickets to the annual Eleanor Bryant Memorial Fund’s Cocktail Party Fundraiser are now available to purchase.
