Traineeship presents Fitzroy Crossing businesses and community with 'amazing' opportunity

Taking on a trainee can be a significant step for any business, but in remote parts of Australia, it can be hugely challenging.

For Fitzroy Crossing business owners Chris and Sally Towne and their new management trainee Faith Atwell it has been a life-changing decision.

For the Townes, it's the culmination of a two-year commitment to taking on more local workers, part of an agreement with the Foundation for Indigenous Sustainable Health (FISH).
