This interview was recorded in 2017 with the now former Governor of Western Australia, Her Excellency, The Honorable Kerry Sanderson AC ,   who has had a distinguished career in government and business, and has been a driving force behind the creation of the WA Parks Foundation https://www.ourwaparks.org.au
