Seventy-five years is an exceptional commitment, and I join with the members of the branch in congratulating Mrs Maitland, who is well-known in the community and last year was named a NSW Seniors Festival Local Achievement Award recipient. Mrs Maitland is also the new Branch Patron.
I would also like to congratulate the members of the West Wyalong Branch on their reactivation and wish them a long and successful future!

It was a privilege to stand alongside Jean Maitland as she was recognised for an extraordinary 75 years of service to the National Party.
Jean’s contribution to our Party and her community has been truly inspirational. Her energy, commitment and leadership across generations have left a lasting mark, and there could be no more deserving choice as Patron of the West Wyalong Branch.
