Ronald McDonald House Hobart is excited to welcome musical icons Human Nature to meet with and entertain families who are staying at our Hobart House while their seriously ill child receives treatment. After visiting and meeting families, Human Nature will be performing for guests at the annual RMHC VIC & TAS Tasmanian Gala Ball, raising funds for Ronald McDonald House Charities Victoria & Tasmania’s local programs. 

“Human Nature’s fun filled visit will bring a touch of magic to families a long way from home,” says Peter Bishop, CEO of Ronald McDonald House Charities Victoria & Tasmania. “The Hobart House has supported thousands of families since opening in 1998, and will continue to provide a home-away-from-home for families across Tasmania into the future with the support of celebrities such as Human Nature and events like our Tasmanian Gala Ball”.  

RMHC VIC & TAS Tasmanian Gala Ball Committee Chairman Craig Brakey says, “We are thrilled to welcome such incredible entertainment like Human Nature to the stage for this year’s Tasmanian Gala Ball and thank them for their visit to the Hobart House to bring joy to all those staying there”.
