Tanya Thompson MP, Member for Myall Lakes, recently joined Mid North Coast businesses to highlight The Inclusive Co Hampers, a unique initiative formed by Dundaloo Enterprises, Valley Industries, and Willing & Able.
This collaboration of three social enterprises creates meaningful employment opportunities for people with disabilities on the Mid North Coast.
The Inclusive Co Hampers, available for $85, are filled with locally sourced, premium products and assembled by individuals with disabilities, providing them with supportive work opportunities.
“It was wonderful to see local enterprises collaborating and the pure joy on the team’s faces who were so proud to be working together in such a supportive and inclusive environment,” said Mrs Thompson.
“Each hamper purchased goes directly toward creating jobs and empowering people with disabilities.”
Colin Steber, Manager at Dundaloo Enterprises, praised the initiative’s impact on the lives of the individuals involved.
“The Inclusive Co Hampers provide so much more than employment – they offer confidence, skill development, and a meaningful way for people of all abilities to connect with the community.”
Dave Isbel, CEO of Valley Industries, encouraged local businesses to consider these hampers for corporate gifting.
“When you choose a hamper from The Inclusive Co, you’re not just giving a beautiful, high-quality gift. You’re supporting local people and local products.”
The Inclusive Co Hampers are now available for purchase, making it easy for individuals and businesses to support this initiative. To order visit www.inclusiveco.com.au for more information.
