Spotlight on business woman

Di Henshall and her team, of Di Henshall Interior Design hosted November’s Noosa Chamber of Commerce coffee networking morning on her beautifully appointed showroom rooftop in Noosaville. Di spoke briefly to welcome Chamber guests, sharing a glimpse of her business, and her career working as a woman in a man’s world.

Attendees were fascinated with her business versatility, and very interested to hear of the many awards for her interior renovations and design, including the recent Sunshine Coast-Wide Bay 2024 HIA award for Renovation/Addition Project.

As a licenced builder specialising in high end renovations, Di’s business can manage the whole renovation and design. With an onsite factory in Noosaville, attendees were wowed to hear that her team even craft and design bespoke cabinetry to suit individual client needs.

Di and her team worked behind the scenes to create beautiful and delicious breakfast dishes for the morning, which together with a great coffee, ensured all were ready to face their working day with a smile, uplifted and motiviated by an extraordinary woman.

Di introduced her good friend and Noosa’s Independent MP Sandy Bolton, who gave an inspiring speech about ‘pivoting’ in business – finding innovative ways to survive and grow with the many challenges an everchanging world presents.

Events coordinator Caroline Edginton welcomed and acknowledged councillor Amelia Lorentson, Chamber Sponsors, and several new Chamber members.

Jacqui Gray shared information on the exclusive discounted services from some Chamber Businesses and Sponsors now available to financial Chamber members. Members can access the ‘members only’ exclusive opportunities via login to the Chamber Website.

Noosa Chamber events for 2024 have proven to be very popular, with tickets to Di Henshaw coffee morning selling out within 48 hours of registration opening.

The Chamber events are an important opportunity to network and connect with local businesses, creating new avenues for success and growth.
