HGA publicity - January 2019
The work that HGA is doing provides examples of the sharing of knowledge and experiences across the bounds of colour and creed and is testament to what can be achieved through the joining of hands and the turning of soil in our land. We feel this is a message that needs to be spread particularly given the current uncertainty surrounding the outcome of the land debate in our country and the desperate situation we find our economy in. Our nation needs positive stories and to that end HGA has pursued opportunities to publicise the work it is doing and the people and companies that make it possible.
After being interviewed by Cindy Kidger from Urban House Media in October 2018, tremendous publicity was generated and included articles in the following newspapers and online news platforms:
