John Howlett Bursary in Psychiatric Nursing
John Howlett suffered brain trauma in 1969 as a result of being knocked down by a motor vehicle while crossing at a pedestrian crossing in NSW. The accident has necessitated him receiving extended care for over three decades from interstate and Tasmanian Mental Health Services. To demonstrate his gratitude for the care he has received from medical staff, his estate has agreed to fund two annual bursaries at the University of Tasmania to support nursing students studying the Graduate Diploma of Nursing (Mental Health Specialisation).
