GAMMA GURUS' LATEST NEWS

Gurus with benefits

Gamma Gurus is working towards Benefit-Corporation status.
B-corps for short, make decisions that have a positive impact across their workers, customers, suppliers, their community, and the environment.
We are well on the way to joining other great Australian and International businesses that have chosen to shake up the paradigm of business to include social and environmental performance to their reporting and accountability. It is a long process of verification, but every great journey starts with a single step.
We have always made great service a priority, and now we can add another focus to our purpose.
If you want to check out B-corps you can support, here is a list of Australian companies, big and small that are going that extra mile.

The Gurus are reaching for the stars with Sky Factory

Gamma Gurus has been connecting more staff and their patients with the healing powers of open sky with multiple Sky Factory virtual luminous SkyCeilings and Windows over the last quarter.
Covid19 created a few delays and frustrations with delivery, but we got there in the end with Launceston General Hospital’s Holman clinic and the Royal Hobart Hospital RadOnc department both installing beautiful Sky Ceilings in their new radiotherapy rooms.
There are more therapeutic installations planned for Royal Prince Alfred Hospital, Blacktown Acute Mental Health and North West Cancer Centre in Burnie, Tasmania, among others over the next few months.

Gamma Gurus gives

Princess Alexandra Hospital RadOnc department received a beautiful Sky Ceiling courtesy of the Gurus for their radiotherapy bunker during the recent PA Giving Day charity drive.
The Gurus know that being in treatment is a stressful time and we hope that Sky Factory’s research-verified calming and stress-reducing products can help create the best environment for patients and staff alike.
