A Note from Member Engagement Officer Nicki Hood

This past fortnight Nicki has been busy adding final pieces to the three hampers members can win across the North West during the month of July for the North West Roadshow. She has visited sites including Karingal, Meercroft, Mt St Vincent and Melaleuca. Don’t forget to scan the QR code to win! If you know of any new employees at work bring them along to get them to sign up; you can win prizes and they get a gift to sign up too. Plus, the chance to win a hamper as well!

Updates correct as at 7 July 2022.
