This Friday, we're celebrating staff from across the business who rolled up their sleeves to restore native habitat and grow a greener future.

 

"Programmed employees from across the business joined Greenfleet for a hands-on tree planting day at the Gippsland, Strzelecki Nature Link project.

Together, we planted 500 native trees and shrubs - supporting native wildlife habitat restoration while sharing a rewarding day of teamwork, learning and giving back to the environment for future generations.

🌱 FOR ALL OF US"
