Yvette is a fun mum of 3 strapping young adult men and has a wonderful husband, Mark. Yvette has been a long time supporter of PACT and is fantastic at the Working Bees, so it was only natural that she was to join our team as the community Centre Cleaner. She does a great job keeping things looking good around here!
