“THE HAND THAT PERSPIRES”

DAWSON”S “WHY”

The reason I started this business was to give people like myself an equal

opportunity in life. The motivation stemmed from not wanting to be in

traditional everyday employment but become my own boss. This endeavour

allowed me to not only pursue my dreams but also create a space for others to

thrive, be happy and be healthy - whether within the workplace or in the

comfort of their own home.

Nō te tīmatanga mai o tēnei pakihi i hiahia au kia whai tūranga mahi ngā

whānau me te hapori whānui, kāore au i te hiahia ki te whai tonu i te tāera

mahi o mua, heoi me waihanga taku anō tāera mahi.
