We are celebrating International Rural Women’s Day with Allison’s success as a future leader for rural women.
In the last 12 months, Allison was selected to attend the one of the Future Leaders Camps in Vanuatu.
Allison also won the Raise Our Voice to Parliament Competition; meaning her speech was read in the House of Representatives last week, asking for more funding for rural medical services.
This week Allison’s entry discussing the importance of rural women driving change has won her a place in the Country to Canberra Leadership Competition and attend the Power Trip where she will have an invaluable experience!
We are so proud of the adult you are becoming Allison 👏🏻
We look forward of our ‘eldest child’ 🥰 setting this world on fire 🔥

May we know them,
May we be them,
May we raise them 💗
