As the COVID-19 situation continues to evolve, we wanted to give you an update on how we are operating, and also pass on some helpful information from the Australian Government regarding their Economic Response to the Coronavirus.
In the interest of the safety of you, your family, the community and our team, our office premises will be closed from 4.30pm on Friday 27 March 2020 for the foreseeable future, with all our staff working remotely from home.
