About the Venue
The Tattersalls Club Brisbane, founded in 1865 by a group of men, is one of the first “gentlemen’s” clubs to end gender-specific discrimination in 2018 by welcoming women as financial members. As one of the oldest institutions in Queensland, Tatts is delighted to be able to partner with the NCWQ to ensure equal access and equal opportunities for all. Our 2021 President’s lunch will be held in the prestigious Member’s Dining Room where guests will be treated to the unique style & elegance reminiscent of the Great Gatsby era.

THIS EVENT SUPPORTS
- SHARE THE DIGNITY– a charity that was started in 2015 after learning that many homeless and vulnerable women did not have access to sanitary products leaving them to face unthinkable indignities during their monthly period. The charity now runs an annual “it’s in the bag” drive to collect bags to distribute to women in need over Christmas. Donations are welcome at the NCWQ President’s Lunch.
