South East resident named among Churchill Fellowship

PORT MacDonnell resident Adam Hardcastle will be among a cohort of Australians who will travel all over the world in 2018 in search of new ideas, innovation and excellence as recipients of the prestigious Churchill Fellowship.

The Winston Churchill Memorial Trust was established in 1965 to honour the memory of Sir Winston Churchill.

The Churchill Fellowship honours his wish to offer people from all walks of life the opportunity to travel overseas to gain new knowledge and insights that can be practically applied in Australia to positively impact communities and society at large.

More than 100 Australians have been announced as the 2017 Churchill Fellows.

Mr Hardcastle will travel to the United Kingdom to learn how music-oriented regional festivals can be authentic, community-inclusive and sustainable.

The organisation will send fellows all over the world to investigate everything from high energy batteries and milk pricing to sustainable shoe-making and driverless cars.

The full list is available at www.churchilltrust.com.au
