For the fourth year running, the team achieved a five star rating, the highest possible rating.

VERTO CEO Ron Mawell said the Bathurst DES team are a credit to both the organisation and the local community.

“This is a wonderful achievement and reflects the outstanding work the team does to help people with disability to find employment,” he said,

“I would also like to thank all of the Bathurst employers we work with for their ongoing support.”

VERTO’s Gemma Wald said the achievement is also great news for local people with disabilities who are assisted by the service’s committed team.
