𝗣𝗶𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗗𝗮𝘆 Ahoy, mateys! 🦜🏴‍☠️ Why are some Council staff dressed up as pirates today? Council's Administration staff have chosen to raise funds for The Kids' Cancer Project during May via their ongoing monthly Casual for a Cause fundraiser, where they dress in casual clothes each Friday and donate money to a worthy cause. And today, May 16, is Pirate Day! It's an annual dress-up day held each May as part of Brain Cancer Awareness Month. Since 2015, Pirate Day has raised more than $700,000 for childhood brain cancer research. Find out more at https://pirateday.com.au (fb)
