A MESSAGE TO OUR COMMUNITY
It is extremely disappointing that two of our businesses have been attacked, and a third has been vandalised with racist and offensive remarks, including messages such as “Go home.”
In this day and age, there is simply no place for racism, intimidation or vandalism in our community.
We have worked extremely hard to establish and provide several businesses in this town, creating places that serve the public, provide employment and contribute positively to the local community. We are proud of what we have built and of the service we provide to the people who support us.
Everyone has the right to feel safe and respected, and businesses should be able to operate without being targeted or vandalised.

💰 REWARD OFFERED
A reward will be offered for information that leads to the successful identification and conviction of those responsible.

We will not allow the actions of a small number of people to undermine the hard work that has gone into building businesses that serve and support our community.

We ask for respect, unity and support from our local community.
