Multitask provides support and services for people with disabilities. On 2 March this year, Multitask will be celebrating three of their clients achieving the milestone of being employed for the last 50 years. Barry Nichol started in 1968. He's a hard worker and he's also someone who loves a title. He's been known as the assistant manager, the document destruction officer and the recycle officer. Lexie Connor is regarded as Multitask's unofficial historian, with an incredible memory for names, dates and anecdotes. Frances Mortimer is known for her frankness and honesty, which has led to some interesting and amusing moments in the workplace. Also celebrating milestones are Brian Bowen, Janice Campbell and Bill Gillespie. Each of them has been associated with Multitask in some capacity for the last 50 years. Janice is known for being the tireless worker on mail-out ropes and tags and for giving the daily report of 'what I had for tea last night'. Brian is the walking, talking telegraph and keeps everyone up-to-date with the news and views. I'd also like to take this opportunity to make a special mention of Ken Barnes, who sadly passed away on the fifth of this month. Ken worked at Multitask for 45 years before retiring in 2013. Congratulations to you all.
