A Huge Thank You!
As my husband and I sat enjoying the entertainment and company, catching up with others in the disability support space—and even a client or two—we only had one ear on the nominations for the Innovation Excellence Award.
The list of nominees was extensive, with 15 organisations in total. We relaxed, not expecting to hear Seen and Herd called. So, it was quite a shock and delight to be announced as the 2024 winner!
Thank you to all those who nominated and voted for Seen and Herd. It means so much to us, and we will continue working hard to provide innovative, creative, and safe therapeutic interventions for all.
A Milestone in Innovation and Inclusion
This recognition affirms the incredible work being done at Seen and Herd and highlights the value of innovative approaches in creating a more inclusive community.
Thank you for supporting our journey!.
