This week, Kardan met with National Australia Day Council Interim CEO, Todd Ashurst, to explore new ways of creating meaningful employment pathways and lasting social impact.
We were delighted to bring together 2026 Western Australian Australian of the Year Dr Daniela Vecchio - founder of Australia's first and only public hospital Gaming Disorder and Screen Addiction Clinic, and 2026 Australian of the Year Local Hero, Frank Mitchell.
Together, they're collaborating on a recovery-to-employment initiative supporting people transitioning from gaming and screen addiction into meaningful, sustainable employment.
We're already seeing the impact, with two participants now employed within Kardan Glassworks and our Head Office team.
At Kardan, we believe employment changes lives, and we're proud to support partnerships that create opportunity and lasting social impact.
