During the last 2 years I have been busy working with Fairtrade Australia New Zealand and suppliers in India. To bring my own range of Organic, CO neutral and FAIRTRADE certified cotton clothing to Australia.
Born is “The Little White T Shirt Company’.

Mine is a company born out of ethics and looking to do the right thing.
My brand is small and humble, but with a vision to make people aware that the ethical process in manufacture of clothing can be sustainable, and FAIR.

It’s not about making money for me. It’s about giving people a choice that their clothing can be made in a factory with a full process that is fully transparent.
It provides a livable income for all the workers in the supply chain, meaning the families in farming can send their children to school, thus educating them and giving them opportunity.

I would LOVE for the brand to be known globally it is my ultimate DREAM. I am sure Sir Richard would be behind me in these business aspirations and goals.

Have a great time at the Summit.

My interest lies in small community projects. As an event manager I know that a lot of money is spent on small and large events and would like to see some of that money spent in the community sector.

I have established a website which allows community venues to list their halls / spaces for hire – http://www.hallsforhire.com.au
Having an easy way to find these spaces will bring much needed funds into organisations such as scout groups, religious groups, sporting clubs and recreational clubs that do so much for their immediate community and the community at large.

I would love to come along to the forum to spread the word of community involvement and the importance of creating a society that not only cares about the welfare of the most impoverished but nurtures local organisations and the sense of community which is often lacking.

As for how do you get noticed – I think you should just be yourself. The world truly is an amazing place, and if you speak with conviction, are passionate about what you believe in and put yourself out there to be hear and listened to you can’t go wrong.

Good Luck!

Just reading your amazing representation has prompted me to write this message.

Wow, congratulations on your efforts and all the very best in your endeavours.

I live in country NSW and would be unable to attend the presentation but wanted to tell you who I am.

I am a very ordinary widowed lady still employed full time at the age of 67. My role has always been in administration,(even though I gained my Leaving Certificate as dux of the school with 2 1st class honours) most of it self taught. I am a Nationally accredited Certificat 1V Trainer, and use these skills in many places, one of such, in a voluntary organisation trainig employers and HSC students for workplace vocational training as a subject for the HSC.

I have never willingly taken a “sickie” because I wanted a “day off”
and have been gainfully employed whilst raising my 3 children and caring for two terminally ill husbands.

I would love the opportunity to help you should you “get Sir Richard’s nod”
