Let’s come together to support mental health 🧡

Team BUSY is taking on The Push-Up Challenge this month and we want you to join us 💪

This means that over 23 days, we will each be completing 3,214 push ups which represents the number of lives lost to suicide in Australia in 2023.

This challenge not only helps raise awareness and funds for mental health but also promotes physical fitness and team spirit ✨

Anzac Day - One of Australia’s most important national days.



A time for Australians to remember our AU & NZ servicemen and servicewomen.



Anzac Day is a time of personal reflection where we demonstrate our solemn respect for those who have served, and those who continue to serve our nation.



Loyalty, selflessness and courage reflect the Anzac spirit, which encompasses values that Australians hold dear and aspire to. Lest We Forget.

The BUSY Group is proud to announce that our BUSY Sisters program has partnered with TradesWomen Australia and is featured in their inaugural publication! This valuable resource celebrates the inspiring stories, challenges, and triumphs of women who are breaking barriers in the trades industry.

With women representing just 3% of the workforce in male-dominated trades, we’re excited to see that percentage grow, with a recent report from the Department of Employment and Workplace Relations showing an 80% increase in women entering trade apprenticeships. This shift is essential not only for diversity and equality but also to address Australia’s growing skills shortages.

Through our BUSY Sisters program, part of The BUSY Group, we empower women in trades by providing mentorship, a supportive community, and the resources needed to excel and thrive in the industry.
Together, we can help break down barriers and build stronger, more inclusive workplaces. ✨
