The traditional @RACSurgeons Women in Surgery photo at #RACS25 Was so wonderful to see the staircase filled with so many surgeons. It is always my favourite moment every year as Chair of Women in Surgery.

The Foundation for Surgery Fundraising Gala took place on Friday evening to raise funds for the Foundation for Surgery and support the work of RACS Global Health. It was inspiring to hear from keynote speakers speak about their work in the Pacific and beyond.
