We pay our deepest respects to Elders past, present and emerging, whose enduring connection to Country, culture and community continues to guide us.
As the founder, I, Britt Brennan, honour the journey that brought my family to the Keerup (Kirup) region in the 1850s and the personal growth I experienced living and working in Nullagine (Biybara/Pilbara) as a young adult.
Now, with my family living on Whadjuk Noongar Country - from Jandakot, the land of the Whistling Eagle, to Mundijong, meaning "red-tailed black cockatoo"
I remain deeply grateful to walk and work on this land.
