Community Support
WHK Garrotts has been heavily involved in supporting local charities and events, and believes in supporting the community that has supported them.
Monthly our staff hold 'dress down days' and money raised is donated to a different charity each time. The firm also matches the contribution raised by staff.
In 2005, a staff member of the firm shaved his head for the Variety Club of Tasmania (see pictures), and other staff joined in the battle - some to keep their hair!
In November 2006, many staff of the firm were involved in raising money for the event Movember. (see pictures)
All staff and principals of the firm, firmly believe that raising funds for charities, sporting organisations, and continue to sponsor other charitable organisations is worthwhile.
