Another successful evening was held with the local members on Tuesday 4th May at the Wallarah Bay Recreation Club.

Guest speakers for the evening included Leeanne Farmer from Master Builders Insurance Brokers and Barry Quon from Termseal Australia, who provided invaluable information to our local members.

This was such a great turn out for a very special evening. We were pleased to have our Executive Director Brian Seidler attend to present the Divisional Gold Medal to one of our long-standing committee members, Bruce Webb. The surprised look on his face was well worth the wait.

Bruce has been a member of Master Builders Association for over 38 years and has been a great support to the Central Coast Committee for over 15 years. Bruce has held many committee roles which have included President, Vice President and Secretary.

Bruce started his career as a handyman, and as a mature student he completed his Carpentry Certificate at night whilst working fulltime. He then attended a Clerk of Works course before going to Sydney TAFE to complete his Certificate in Building. 

He mostly enjoyed doing extension and renovations work as he found it more interesting and rewarding. He also found a passion for Building Design as he would often draw plans for his clients to be submitted to council. Bruce continues to be a part of the Building Designer Association of Australia.

The Central Coast Division is very proud of Bruce’s contribution to the local committee and look forward to having his support for many years to come!
