TRCB Director Leigh Robinson retires as committee member of the Association of Consulting Architects Australia (ACA)
9 December 2020
At last week's End of Year drinks, the ACA’s WA Committee bid farewell to retiring committee member, Leigh Robinson.
From ACA:
“Leigh is a Director at TRCB Architects and has made a huge contribution to the committee, particularly in strengthening links between ourselves and the Architects Board of Western Australia. We will miss his style and wit at meetings!”
From Leigh:
"I was encouraged to join the ACA WA Executive towards the end of 2014, by the then WA President, Richard Young. Over the past six years, the ACA has continued to increase its profile in WA and to show an increase in practice membership. The WA Executive has seen a gradual change in membership, as is expected with Boards of this nature, and the current executive now has a good gender equality mix, and some new blood, to ensure it remains a relevant and strong industry body for our profession in WA.
The ACA has continued to evolve, to ensure that it provides the relevant information for architects and architectural practices to allow them to operate successfully. This was particularly noticeable during this year’s world health crisis. The ACA was the key source of up-to-date information for Australian architects, in how practices could and were responding to the demands of operating in the new world of working from home, government assistance packages and how businesses could ensure they were creating safe workplaces for their employees. The information provided was concise, factual and relevant, and an excellent resource for member practices, when trying to decipher the large volume of information being received especially in those first crazy few months of the pandemic.
I wish all involved in the ACA all the best for the future, and thank all my fellow ACA Executive members for putting up with me over the past six years."
