Last weekend, the Level network came together in Inverell for a Local Impact project we will never forget.
In honour of Angela Clarke from Level Plumbing Inverell, and in continued support of Simon and their four children, Isla, Kenzie, Henni and Oakey, the Level network gathered at the Clarke family home to help complete renovation and improvement works.
Together, through donated time, materials and support, more than $100,000 was contributed to help renovate the Clarke family home.
But more than anything, it was a weekend of community.
The project took place on the farm where Ange grew up. Originally her parents’ family home, Ange and Simon later bought the property together, making the weekend even more meaningful for everyone involved.
Across the weekend, there were plenty of wonderful stories shared, lots of laughter, hard work, and of course tears, as everyone wished Ange could have been there to see it all come together.
The day finished around a warm bonfire, with live music and wonderful company. It was a special day, and one that will stay with the Level tribe for a very long time.
A project made possible by many
Local Impact 2026 was only possible because of the incredible generosity of the Level network and our supply partners.
A huge thank you to Jonny Holbrow for coordinating the project from start to finish.
Thank you to Mark and Jody Wilks and Dave Ison for project managing the electrical works, including site visits, planning, materials lists and coordinating volunteer tradies on the day.
Thank you to Simon Clarke for taking on the project management of the plumbing works, including scoping, materials coordination and on-site direction, all while navigating an incredibly difficult time for his family. His strength and generosity in helping bring this project together did not go unnoticed.
Thank you to Jody Wilks for leading the catering and keeping everyone so well fed across the weekend.
Thank you to Lucy Holbrow for running the most wonderful kids club, full of activities to keep the kids entertained and included throughout the weekend.
And thank you to every Member, team member, family member, supplier and supporter who donated, volunteered, travelled, picked up tools, lent a hand or contributed in any way.
Thank you to our supply partners
We are incredibly grateful to the supply partners who donated materials and support to help bring the renovation works to life:
Their generosity helped ensure that every dollar raised through the GoFundMe campaign could be put to good use, helping upgrade the home for Simon, Isla, Kenzie, Henni and Oakey.
What Local Impact is all about
Local Impact is about using the skills, resources and heart within the Level network to make a practical difference where it is needed most.
This year, that meant showing up for one of our own.
To everyone who supported the Clarke family through the GoFundMe campaign, donated materials, travelled to Inverell, volunteered across the weekend or helped behind the scenes, thank you.
This is what Local Impact is all about. Showing up, using what we have, and making a real difference together.
