To mark the 50th anniversary of Probus in New Zealand, Dr Davies hosted members from clubs from all around the country for a celebratory high tea at Government House Wellington. Probus – a community service activity of Rotary Clubs – aims to help people adjust to retirement by connecting its members with fun, friendship, and fellowship. As part of a wider international group, the first Probus club in New Zealand was founded on the Kapiti Coast in 1974, and has since grown to around 140 clubs with 12,000 members.
