AVA volunteers will have a stand at the South East Field Days at Lucindale on Friday and Saturday this week – that’s Friday March 15 & Saturday 16 March. Stop by and see us if you have any concerns at all about asbestos. This year Sue from South East Asbestos will be joining us – a good opportunity for some hands on advice. We will be participating in the children’s Yakka trail and hope to see you there.
