Services

Grass Tree Governance is focused on supporting Aboriginal organisations throughout Western Australia on their governance journey. Grass Tree Governance is small – its just me! But what I lack in numbers, I make up in experience, insight and an enduring love of working on country and getting to know a community. I will come to you, wherever you are in WA and support your organisation in its governance journey.
