Thank you to David New and Kym Kanofski for organising and everyone who attending the September Local Jobs Meeting that we hosted last week. It was great to see some new faces.

What a day! We teamed up with Western Truck Group and hosted their bi-monthly BBQ. As apart of this collaboration, WTG has sponsored four of our staff members to earn their first aid and CPR certificates.
