Lake Mac Business Excellence Awards 2023

The committee is excited to announce that Allambi Care have been selected as a finalist in the Lake Mac Business Excellence Awards - Excellence in Diversity and Inclusion.

We feel privileged to be able to highlight the work Allambi is doing in this space with Simon and a few committee members attending the awards evening in late July.

It is an honour to sit alongside the other finalists in this category who are all striving to create more inclusive workplaces that acknowledge the value in diversity.

Wear it Purple

Wear it Purple Day is fast approaching and Allambi have an amazing afternoon planned.

This year’s theme is ‘Write Your Story’. It was designed by the WIP Youth Action Council, placing emphasis on the importance of personal expression and individuality for rainbow youth. The Youth Council states:

“In a world where social media, the media and our education system often create pressure to conform to norms, broken structures and certain standards, our theme hopes to encourage young people to embrace their unique perspectives and to share their stories with others”.

Wear it Purple allows us to show our support and appreciation for all rainbow young people in a fun, celebratory and inclusive manner.

The afternoon would not be the same without a massive show of support from our amazing staff, Foster Carers, and the young people we care for, so if you are keen on having a bit of fun and supporting our LGBTQI+ young people, keep the afternoon of the 25th of August free.
