WEDDINGS

Before venturing into entrepreneurship, Ms. Borland held influential positions at Credit Suisse, working in exciting locations such as Sydney, Singapore, and Zurich. It was during her time as a banker that she personally experienced the challenge of finding wholesome meal and snack options amidst long hours at the office.

Determined to solve this problem for others, she founded Morsl in 2017. Since then, Morsl has grown significantly, proudly operating 14 sites across New South Wales and Victoria. These locations are strategically placed within some of Australia's largest warehouses and logistic companies, including renowned names like Amazon and Officeworks.

Alison Jones Finds Love And Career In Remote Nsw Town

When Alison Jones (2006) decided to try her luck on a reality TV show back in 2010, she could not have imagined where her life would take her – including training as a specialist GP with the Remote Vocational Training Scheme (RVTS).

Alison found love on popular TV show, The Farmer Wants a Wife and now lives on a rural property in Walcha in the NSW Northern Tablelands with her husband and children. She initially joined the Australian General Practice Training (AGPT) program but faced challenges with travel aswell as having to move practice every six months. She opted for the RVTS program with a plan to pursue her Fellowship through RVTS within a five-year timeframe.

Alison now campaigns for better local childcare access in her small town of Walcha and more support for rural GPs, like her.
