Historical information

In 1986, the Arthritis Foundation of Victoria (AFV) held an information stall at Chadstone Shopping Centre. The stall was situated in a prominent position opposite a Coles New World supermarket. In this photo, two shoppers are perusing information leaflets from the stall table, which is staffed by several AFV member volunteers providing assistance. There is also a large freestanding display board, as well as an audiovisual display on a colour screen television. Another AFV member volunteer is standing beside the television, ready to hand out leaflets to passers by.
