Quotes from Recent Corporate Volunteers: RailCorp Group General Manager of Asset Operations, Gavin Campbell said “the 30 plus members of the Asset Operations division became involved in the community-based project as part of the program to improve leadership skills and links with the community.” “During the working bee we repaired pathways and improved Breakaway’s Sensory Trail by removing vegetation, spreading mulch and planting. The team refurbished the planter box that is part of the sensory garden, removing excess paving and levelling the site,” Mr Campbell said. General Manager of Breakaway, Dawn Caplin, said “it was clear the team thoroughly enjoyed the project and the opportunity to enhance the lives of children and adults with disabilities. The Breakaway site and the Sensory Trail are designed for adults and children with a disability. With RailCorp’s support, we were able to improve and repair areas that needed attention.”
