THE Australian College of
Pharmacy yesterday announced
that it had granted life membership
to Derick Seaborn, after his
longstanding commitment to the
organisation.
The now retired former
community pharmacist, who
practised on the Sunshine Coast in
Queensland, joined the College
about 35 years ago, in 1978.
He was one of the first six
pharmacists named as Fellows of
the College in 1980, with his career
also including extensive
involvement with the Pharmacy
Guild of Australia, as a member of
the Qld state branch committee.
Seaborn was also chairman of The
Gilseal Company and spent some
years as the Guild’s representative
on the state Poisons Advisory body.
A PSA member since 1960,
Seaborn is also a life member of
that organisation.
The College also cited Seaborn’s
extensive community involvement,
including sporting, business and
charitable organisations.
Seaborn thanked the ACP for the
honour, saying he had “always
beleived the work of the College to
be important to the future of the
profession and to enhancing the
delivery of quality pharmaceutical
services to the community.
“I am pleased ot see this
commitment continuing and I
thank the Board for this honour
and wish the College well in its
future endeavours,” he added.
