Yesterday, we enjoyed the first of our January holiday Empower Her Art Sessions with a beautiful morning of ‘Paint and Sip’. Our lovely participants joined Amy and Georgia from ILC, to lose themselves in a session of calm, creativity and community, accompanied with some tasty morning tea and of course, sparkling apple and grape juices – adding the ‘sip’ to our Paint and Sip class.

‘When women support other women, incredible things happen’. Thank you to our participants for a fabulous morning and a wonderful start to our 2026 season!

✨ Welcome to the Team, Louise ✨

Although Louise has been with us since November, we’re excited to officially welcome her and celebrate the incredible value she brings to our team.

We are beyond delighted to have Louise on board, and she has already proven to be a wonderful asset through her experience, compassion and commitment to supporting others.

With a strong background across community services, counselling, nursing and education, Louise brings a wealth of knowledge and a genuine, person-centered approach to her role. Her kindness, ability to listen and passion for helping people achieve their goals shines through in everything she does.

We’re so grateful to have you as part of the team, Louise!
