Historical information

On Tuesday, the 8th of April 2003, Arthritis Victoria conducted an outreach visit to the town of St Arnaud, in the Wimmera region of central west Victoria. Around 40 people attended a talk on musculoskeletal health presented by naturopath and psychologist, Phillip Blackwood, and Arthritis Victoria's Community Speaker, Bill O'Connor. On the following morning, the Healthy Bones Bus (HBB) was set up in the main street of St Arnaud. This photo depicts Bill O'Connor making his presentation. Another photo from the event, depicting the seated attendees in the foreground and Bill standing in the background, appears on page 16 of the Vol 16 Issue 2, Winter 2003 edition of the Arthritis Foundation of Victoria's quarterly magazine, Update. The published photo is not captioned.
