This month in our 20-year celebration posts…
Behind every milestone, there’s a team who made it happen. 💛
From Saturday morning students – teenagers starting their very first job and covering the trade counter – to those who joined us right at the beginning, those who stayed, those who left (and came back!), and everyone in between – you’ve all played a part in creating the Workplace-Worksafe we know today. We simply wouldn’t be here without you.
A massive thank you too, to our amazing team right now – you’ve not only kept everything running like clockwork, but you’ve lifted me and each other through the toughest 8 weeks of my life as we said an unexpected goodbye to my darling mum, who lost her battle with cancer a month ago.
Mum worked in the company not long after I set it up – and she was the strictest accounts lady anyone has ever met! She wouldn’t let me spend a penny without proof and would chase me round the office for missing receipts. But she was also our biggest cheerleader, and even after she left, she’d often pop in to see the team, share advice, or roll up her sleeves to help me in the embroidery or printing room on a Saturday morning – usually bribed with cake and tea!
This is one of my favourite work photos (with many more to come over the next few months) – Mum in her chair with Millie, one of our office dogs at the time, on her lap. It sums up what this place has always been about – heart, family, and the brilliant people who’ve made it what it is. ❤️🐾
And to all the brilliant people yet to join our story in the next 20 years – we can’t wait to see where we go together.
Here’s to every single one of you who has made this journey possible – past, present, and future. We’re only here because of you.
