The ALSO Foundation has a new public face, last week launching their new logo at a 'warming' party at their new city headquarters.

The board has started an 'organisational makeover' to improve the diversity, vibrancy and professionalism of the organisation.

The old ALSO symbol had been around for 20 years, and was derived from a Korean crest. The new logo, encompassing the title of the organisation in typeface and curly brackets, is designed to reflect a modern look.

The launch culminated in an evening soiree, with drinks on the rooftop terrace of the new building, and many in the community joining the group to usher in the new look and surroundings.

"ALSO has worked hard over the past 18 months to find out what our community want and to create a visible and attractive profile across our community. [This] represents a powerful statement of intent and commitment to inclusion and diversity," said Lyn Morgain, CEO of ALSO.
