Women in Construction FNQ

Women in Construction FNQ are a Not for Profit Organisation who promote working in the construction industry, either directly or indirectly in Far North Queensland region to engage in a social environment providing opportunity for new contacts to assist them in gaining knowledge, understanding and education pertaining to the construction industry.

We are proud to be part of this organisation and in 2024 attended their Networking Breakfast at the Cairns Cruising Yacht Squadron in October and Christmas Cocktails at Wharf One Cafe in November. Christina was a panel members at the breakfast.
