Crowdfunding campaign for Telford training campus staff

From Summer Report, 8:40 am on 15 January 2019

A crowdfunding campaign is under way to help dozens of staff at the Telford agricultural training campus near Balclutha, who are stuck without pay while their employer's future is decided. The on-farm facility in South Otago is part of the Taratahi Institute of Agriculture, which was placed in interim liquidation late last year. More than 30 tutors and support staff at Telford had their wages suspended on Friday until further notice.
