We’re introducing a new feature to our networking events: casual, short, practical insights from industry leaders designed to strengthen capability across our region. At this event, we’re pleased to welcome Phoebe Morley and Michael Appleton from CherryHill Orchards who’ll share practical partnership examples, collaboration ideas, and the lessons they’ve learned building one of the region’s most recognised visitor experiences.
