Our Gal – Lorraine Todd

Lorraine Todd

How long have you lived in Forbes? I have lived in Forbes for 51 years. I moved here after getting married but grew up in Guningbland and Parkes.

What do you enjoy the most about living in Forbes? I like the fact that Forbes is a community full of friendly people and that we have great facilities and services here. Everything is covered from medical to social.

What do you do for work? I am well and truly retired now but keep myself busy being involving in community groups including croquet and supporting the Jemalong Residential Village.

What do you enjoy about your work? I love helping others and just generally being involved in the community.

How do you have your coffee? When I am out and about I love a cappuccino but when I am home I drink Nescafe with milk and one sugar.

Where would your dream holiday be? I would like to travel to Canada for my next trip and make my way across the Rockies by train then cruise on to Alaska.
