Wests Steps Up To Clean Up

Caring for the environment is really important to us so we invited our amazing #teamwests volunteers to join us around World Environment day in our very own Clean Up Leumeah Initiative.

The team managed to collect and dispose of 31 bags of rubbish from our venue surrounds keeping trash out of parks and waterways. Go team!

Wests Group Macarthur was pleased to share member David Mulloy has recovered well following a cardiac arrest which occurred within our venue with special thanks to his “Guardian Angels” who administered CPR, mouth to mouth and applied a life saving defibrillator.

With first aid training provided to Supervisors and Managers, the quick thinking and reactive response provided by Wests team members Julia, Emily & Karina was crucial to David’s Survival.

We are exceptionally proud of our team.

MO-VELLOUS JOB!

A huge shout to our MoBro team for their efforts and to everyone who generously donated to our Movember team in 2022. Our Wests MoBros managed to raise a whopping $5,429 to go towards medical research, ground-breaking tests and trials, life-changing men’s health programs and innovative treatments. Special thanks for Director Roy Warby who lead the fundraising with $2,495. Your dough helped save a BRO!

Wow Day

The Wests team was proud to support SES Wear it Orange Wednesday (WOW Day), donning the Hi-Vis to help support our amazing SES volunteers and colouring our venues Orange.

WOW day, Wednesday 18th May, falls during National Volunteer Week and is designed to thank the SES volunteers who generously give their time to help communities during flood and storm emergencies. Wests not only has some very proud Wests members amongst our local SES team but we are also honoured to be the chosen venue in the region for frontline meal support during emergencies.

TEAMWESTS FOR THE WIN!

A bunch of Wests legends represented our staff Oz tag team in December at the Clontarf Foundation South Coast Oz Tag Tournament. It was great to have such an enthusiastic (and talented) Wests team on the field, the support from our friends at Wests Tigers Rugby League and New South Wales Rugby League, and to be able to support Clontarf – a great community organisation and Wests ClubGRANTS recipient.

Turning Point

Wests is proud to support Turning Point Camden Inc., an amazing not-for-profit community welfare and drop-in centre for men and women with a range of services including emergency food relief, mental health and domestic and family violence support, and men’s and women’s support groups plus much more.

In addition to providing support for the pantry program via ClubGRANTS, The Wests team is honoured to host a handful of Men’s breakfasts, held every Friday at the centre. If you or someone you know could do with a helping hand - know that there are amazing people in our community ready to help.
