In recognition of International Women’s Day, a new historical walk trail in collaboration with WA Women’s Hall of Fame was officially launched this morning by our Minister, the Hon. Hannah Beazley MLA at a ceremony held at Karrakatta Cemetery. Walking with Western Australian Women explores the achievements of women who have made great strides historically, effecting positive change in our State in areas of health, aged care, disability support, indigenous welfare and protection of the marginalised.
We invite you to visit the cemetery and uncover the remarkable stories of these women of Western Australia who have shaped our great State. Armed with a smart phone or tablet device, visitors can walk the trail and scan the signs for a map and biographical information. Alternatively, maps are available from the front of the administration building in the main driveway of Karrakatta Cemetery. For more information about these inspirational women go to Walking with Western Australian Women
