Last Fri­day night we had the plea­sure of attend­ing the 2019 Lawyers Week­ly Aus­tralian Law Awards at The Star Sydney.

The 19th annu­al Aus­tralian Law Awards is the pin­na­cle awards pro­gram for the nation’s legal pro­fes­sion, recog­nis­ing the out­stand­ing work being done across major legal prac­tice areas and whilst we did not win the award for Well­ness Ini­tia­tive of the Year, we were absolute­ly thrilled to have been nom­i­nat­ed.

Con­grat­u­la­tions to all the win­ners that were recog­nised for their achieve­ments and to the tremen­dous com­mit­ment from our Well­ness Com­mit­tee.

With over 900 peo­ple at the event, it was a great oppor­tu­ni­ty for those us to get dressed up, social­ize and to cel­e­brate the won­der­ful achieve­ments of oth­ers and hope to improve edu­ca­tion and build effec­tive mod­els of sup­port which focus on men­tal health and wellbeing.
