23.01.2022 A Shoutout to our Landlord! Its been so stressful working in a vacuum, not knowing details of the various stimulus packages, working and reworking cashflow figures, thinking of strategies to make ends meet and then doing what is needed to implement these strategies. The weight of responsibility for the livelihood of my amazing team alongside my commitment to not let down all of our wonderful families who rely on our service and have supported us throughout this entire ordea...l, has been harrowing and enormous. That said, I want to give a big shoutout to our landlord, the OShanessy family, for approving my request for a waiver of our rent for the remainder of this financial year. Their generosity at this time when we so desperately need support is very much appreciated. Im so very grateful for this gesture and their commitment to assist us in ensuring we can better manage our cashflow during these difficult times, and continue to remain open. My sincere and heartfelt thanks to the OShanessy family for your very generous support
