For a lot of regional towns in Australia, the gold mining industry is the economic backbone contributing through jobs, livelihoods and security. But they are also an important part of the community.

The recent success of a grant funding application caused quite a whirl at the WA Centre for Rural Health (WACRH). The Mount Magnet team are in receipt of a Fender Blender Smoothie Bike.
Early this year WACRH applied for funding through the Shire of Mount Magnet’s Ramelius Resources Gold Community Benefit Fund to co-purchase a blender bike.
This new fund has generously been made available by local gold mining company Ramelius Resources to the Mount Magnet local community for the next three years.
