Local Stories helping Local People

Life can dish up unexpected challenges and sometimes we need a bit of help to meet those challenges.  The CanDo Cancer Trust provides financial support to patients and families attending the North Coast Cancer Institute.  It's a way for our community to lend a helping hand to friends and neighbours facing tough times.

We are delighted that our local stories will be helping local people.  You can lend your support by buying a book or attending the live show.

Article Excerpt:

A High-Tech Entrepreneur in Country NSW

I spot Wayne and Jacquie Houlden sitting at the far table on the deck at Latitude 30.  Jacquie wears dark glasses to cut the glare from the sun, which is creating a halo behind Wayne’s head.  The plates in front of them bear the carved out remains of large shellfish and even from this distance I can tell they are talking about business.

Wayne’s life story is defined by business.  Once I’ve settled myself at the table, and the plates have been cleared away, he cautions that he is a private person.  “I’m not someone who spurts stuff out,” he says.  “And he’s modest,” Jacquie is quick to add.  But the one thing he is happy to talk about is the business that he and Jacquie created together.
