Yesterday morning, our wonderful team took part in the Cancer Council Australia's Biggest Morning tea. The event is held nationwide across May and June, to raise vital funds for cancer research and to support the Australian community affected by cancer.

Our team were truly spoilt by all the offerings. We had a lovely time indulging and taking time out from our busy days. Best yet, we have so far raised over $200 and counting!!!
