Barunga Creche will be cooking up a muddy storm 👨🏽🍳 with this incredible mud kitchen Sean has built for them! Sean is our Katherine Supervisor and had the awesome idea of building this for Barunga's local kids. He put so much time and detail into creating the perfect kids kitchen, making it his priority when he wasn't out in community. We had Tracy and Peter's granddaughters give it a final inspection last week and it got their tick of approval! Great work Sean, we cant wait to see the reaction of Bev and her staff when you gift it to them. We know the team and kids will be so happy 🥰 #BarungaCreche #BarungaCommunity #CommunityProjects #CommunityPride #WorkingTogether #NyirrunggulungRISE

Supporting Year 12 Students at Trinity Bay High School Career Day! Last week, the Transition to Work (TTW) team in Cairns had the privilege of attending Trinity Bay High School for their Year 12 Career Day. Our team members, Noel and Talisha, were on hand to share valuable insights about the TTW program and how it can support students as they prepare for their next steps—whether that’s entering the workforce or pursuing further study. It was an amazing day of engagement, where the team connected with so many enthusiastic students eager to explore their career options. We look forward to welcoming a number of them as they join the TTW program in the new year. A huge thank you to the students, staff, and everyone involved for making this event such a great experience. #TransitionToWork #CareerDay #YouthSupport #Cairns #Jobfind #WorkReady #FutureLeaders #CareerDevelopment #MoreThanJustAJob

Today is #PurpleTuesday – a day dedicated to creating a more inclusive world by encouraging businesses to rethink and improve accessibility. Did you know that 70% of disabled people will NOT return to a business after receiving a poor customer service? Accessibility isn’t a choice, it’s essential! At uLaunch, we are proud that more than 60% of our staff identify as living with a disability, chronic illness, or injury. This diversity is key to making our workplace accessible for both staff and participants.
