Alba Noosa staff.

Katie Rose Cottage Hospice recently held its annual fundraising Gala at Alba Noosa.

130 guests enjoyed entertainment from Renae Suttie and The Swing Collective while auctioneer Greg Smith from Select Noosa successfully ran live auctions of prizes generously donated by local businesses.

More than $40,000 was raised on the night for the new outreach service being developed by the Hospice.
