In October of this year they provided financial assistance for the Chillagoe State School to travel to Townsville for a tour of the Cowboys Stadium and Reef HQ.
Christine Charlton, General Manager, Eastern Operations for Cater Care Services said “The Chillagoe Community is dear to all of our hearts at Cater Care and to be able to give back to the local school and students is something we are extremely proud of. We understand living in remote areas can sometimes restrict opportunities for the students so any support we can give is immensely important”.
