Throwing it back to this month’s celebrations! 🌸
We had an amazing time at RMB Attorneys' Women’s Day event, hosted at Moo’s Noodles in Umhlanga. The day was filled with laughter, fun games, and a reminder to care for ourselves. A big thank you to RMB Attorneys and Ryan Botsis for including Currencies Direct in your celebrations, and to the incredible women who attended.
Our very own Kerri Marks also delivered special Women’s Day gifts to some of our affiliate offices, including the wonderful teams at Pam Golding Gauteng and Fairbridges Attorneys. Plus, we had a fantastic morning celebrating women at the Women’s Day event in Ballito, hosted by Pam Golding Properties Ballito, where we connected with the ladies of Ooba KZN and had a lovely time filled with deliciousness and togetherness. Thank you, Ballito!
Here’s to the strength, compassion, and joy that women bring into the world every day! 💖
