Friendly Networking

A special shout out to Mike Dancy and Lionel Naidoo from Dragon Information Systems Limited who, after this week's networking breakfast with Essendon Accounts & Tax presented us with a lovely gift!

One of their clients no longer needed a set of resuscitation manikins, so they asked if we would like them (free of charge) - and we gratefully accepted. It was so nice for them to think of White Dog First Aid when the opportunity arose, and the manikins will definitely be put to good use!

Thank you both - we really appreciate the gesture... ❤️ 😁
