A member of Zonta International,
chartered on 22 June 1981.

Welcome to the Zonta Club of Perth Northern Suburbs

As President of the Zonta Club of Perth Northern Suburbs, I am honoured to lead for a second term, working with a group of passionate and dedicated women committed to building a better world for women and girls.

Our club is an active and welcoming community of volunteers who work together to make a meaningful difference, both locally and internationally. Guided by the mission of Zonta International, we advocate for gender equality, support initiatives that empower women and girls, and take action to create lasting change.

From supporting women experiencing family and domestic violence through our partnership with Zonta House Refuge, to encouraging emerging leaders through the Zonta Young Women in Leadership Award, the Lucy Bohan Nursing Bursary and contributing to global service projects such as Birthing Kits, our members are united by a shared commitment to service and advocacy.

Serving as Club President for a second time is both an honour and a privilege. I am proud to build on the strong foundation laid by the remarkable women who have led our club over the years. Every day, I am inspired by the passion, generosity and dedication of our members, whose commitment enables us to create a lasting impact within our community and beyond.

As we look to the future, I am excited about the opportunities to grow our membership, expand our community engagement, and continue advocating for a world where every woman and girl can achieve her full potential.

If you are looking for a rewarding way to give back to your community, develop lifelong friendships, and be part of a global organisation creating positive change, I warmly invite you to connect with us. Together, we can continue to make a real and lasting difference.

Club President 2026-2028
