It has been an absolute pleasure working with you. You should be immensely proud of what you have achieved and the voice you brought to a highly effective leadership team that managed through unprecedented times… The highlight of my time at Australian Unity, without doubt, has been my deep exposure to the beauty and challenges of Indigenous folk and I carry that for life. I will be forever grateful to you for this.

Thank you for all you have done and contributed to the growth of Aboriginal Housing Company and on a personal level, I have never forgotten the visit and support we (mum, nan and I) received when had her heart attack back in 2019 when she was still a current employee. It really made us feel special and valued team members, part of a big family through a very tough time.
