Local government representatives across the nation got some valuable risk ‘TLC’ when Paladin Risk Management Services examined their risk challenges and had the honour to host the Australian Local Government Association’s (ALGA’s) networking dinner as a platinum sponsor.  Risk Management White Paper Managing Risks within Council

Ben Farinazzo – an ambassador for the charity partner for the event – Soldier On – which is a charity near and dear to my heart gave an amazing speech at the dinner held at the Australian War Memorial.  Since 2016 over 50 veterans having now taken advantage of the free courses offered by Paladin, to those affected by their service.

It was hard not to feel emotional with these surroundings

The next day I was approached by someone who attended the dinner to tell me what the night meant to him. His father had flown in G for George during WWII and here he was sitting under it having dinner.  I think that will stick with me for many years to come.

Thank you to the War Memorial, ALGA, the Royal Military College Band and Soldier On for such a wonderful event.
