 RURAL AMBASSADOR HANDBOOK

The 2007 ANZ Rural Ambassador winner was Brendon Simpson, from Quairading . Armed with a long list of academic, business and sporting achievements the judges said Brendon showed exceptional commitment to his community at a young age.  While an array of career opportunities were open to Brendon upon completing high school, his decision to become a cabinet maker and start a business in his home town has paid dividends – not just for his booming business, but by providing a much needed service in the rural community.
