The ACBRD has a new home in North Melbourne
As 2018 began, the team happily packed up our office at Queensberry Street, Carlton, ready to relocate a few hundred metres, to make a fresh start in a new office in North Melbourne. We left the old, brought the good and have planted seeds for many exciting new opportunities in 2018 and beyond – stay tuned.
For anyone visiting us, please note we are now located at Level 7, 14-20 Blackwood Street, North Melbourne, VIC 3051.
We thank all our colleagues at Diabetes Victoria and Deakin University who have been involved in making our transition to our new office smooth and easy.
