It is hard to believe quite how much has been achieved in the three short years that Greenwoods Corner Epsom Business Association has been in operation.
On 29th May 2023, the business association held its annual general meeting and networking event during which the executive committee provided members with a run-down of their recently completed initiatives and upcoming projects. With a number of small-scale and large-scale events coming to fruition in 2023 - 2024, the future of Greenwoods Corner looks bright. The executive committee is confident that with these initiatives coming into being, positive outcomes will be achieved for both local business and local residents. The business association would like to thank both the Albert-Eden Local Board for its continued and unwavering support and the local volunteers that sit on and outside of the executive committee. Thank you also to our host, Gaylene Brownlie, for once again allowing us to hold the meeting and networking event at Gardner Road Kindergarten and to all of our members that joined us to exchange ideas. A CPR/AED training course was run by Greenwoods Corner Business Association on 22nd May 2023 with the kind support of the Albert-Eden Local Board.
The course proved to be a great success and was open to both local businesses and residents. It is important to note that if you are involved in an emergency cardiac event in the centre of Greenwoods Corner Village, the AED machine nearest to the crossroads of Manukau and Pah Roads is held by On Point Physio (at 594, Manukau Road) - please make use of this if required. |
