This recognition is a testament to the impact of innovative thinking in workplace inclusion. At HDNWA, we believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to thrive in a supportive, welcoming environment and we’re proud to be leading initiatives that turn this belief into reality.

Celebrating the Night
The awards evening was an unforgettable celebration of progress and purpose. Our team had the opportunity to connect with so many inspiring individuals and organisations, all working tirelessly to build a more equitable and inclusive future. A heartfelt congratulations to all the winners, your work continues to inspire and motivate us.

A Special Thank You
We were especially delighted to share the evening with two of our incredible candidates and their mums, who joined us in celebrating this special occasion. Their presence reminded us why we do what we do, and made the night even more meaningful and memorable.
