Notices Funding for WA nursing history project As a result of a bequest from the late Victoria Hobbs, the WA Chapter of Royal College of Nursing is offering funding for projects with the objective of perpetuating some aspect of nursing history in Western Australia. Suitable projects might include, but are not restricted to, oral history, playscripts, postgraduate research, paintings, books, video or slide presentations. Contact: Ms Margaret Watson, Victoria Hobbs Nursing History Project, PO Box 225 Subiaco WA 6008.
