🌟 Staff Spotlight | Celebrating Kirsty 🌟

We’re delighted to share that Kirsty has stepped into the role of Associate at ACL! 🎉

Kirsty joined us in 2019 as a Legal Executive in our property team and has achieved so much along the way. While working full time and raising her young son, she completed her legal studies and was admitted to the bar in June 2025.

Now an important part of our Motueka team, Kirsty continues to go from strength to strength, and we’re incredibly proud to see her take this next step in her career.

A huge congratulations from all of us at ACL, Kirsty! 💙

💗 As Sepsis Month comes to a close, the importance of awareness doesn’t end with September.

This month has been about helping shine a light on sepsis, encouraging conversations, and reminding people just how important awareness can be.

We’re proud to have supported Sepsis Trust NZ throughout September and to have played a small part in helping spread the message.

Let’s keep the conversation going beyond Sepsis Month. 💗
