MPAQ OUT AND ABOUT
CELEBRATING WORLD PLUMBING DAY
11 March, Every Year, Everywhere
As we all know, 2020 was an interesting year for events with COVID-19 causing a large number of postponements and cancellations for event calendars worldwide. For this reason, MPAQ was especially excited to once again be able to celebrate World Plumbing Day by hosting over 300 attendees for the plumbing and gas industry’s biggest breakfast.
Events like these are not possible without the generous support of all our partners. Event Partner
Special guests included the Honourable Mick de Brenni MP, Minister for Energy, Renewables and Hydrogen and Minister for Public Works and Procurement, and Gary O’Halloran, State Secretary of the Plumbing and Pipe Trades Employees Union Qld.
Keynote Speaker Partner
Cancer Council Queensland
Each year, MPAQ members choose a charity they would like to support and raise funds for. With 30+ events in this calendar year, attendees across the state have the opportunity to participate and make donations towards the chosen charity. MPAQ is proud to officially announce Cancer Council Queensland (CCQ) as the charity for 2021 and was lucky to have Rhys Reynolds, Public Relations Manager, present at the event. Rhys discussed a real-life case about baby Imogen and some of the major research projects the Australian Childhood Cancer Registry has been working on. The MPAQ team sold raffle tickets throughout the breakfast for CCQ and with over $4,000 raised, we thank everyone for their contributions! A special thank you to Justin Cain and Rhys Reynolds who attended the event. Visit the events page on the MPAQ website (www.mpaq.com.au) for more information about CCQ or how to donate.
