Full Circle for Gillian!

Saturday 3rd Oct 2009

What a pleasure it was to recently appoint Gillian Mason-Johnson as a Social Worker with TASC. Gillian of course established TASC, or the Toowoomba Community Legal Service back in 1982. I have a newspaper print of Gillian dated 1983, standing shoulder to shoulder with Mark Orchard and Steve Rees, committee members then and still to this day. They were celebrating a grant of $200 that bought them a type-writer!

Since then, Gillian has been a stoic advocate for disadvantaged people across the state and has been so instrumental in instigating numerous social innovations! It almost seems that Gillian has come full circle!
