Season’s greetings - Thank you for your support this year
From all the staff at Relationships Australia Victoria, we wish you a happy, safe and peaceful holiday season and new year.
This year marks our 75th anniversary. This significant milestone reflects the trust of our clients, and the dedication and commitment of so many current and former staff, Board members, stakeholders and partners.
To all those who have supported our organisation, not only this year but across all the years since we first began in 1948, thank you. We wish you a happy and safe holiday period.
We look forward to working with you again, and to continuing to support our clients in 2024.
