Name: Terrance Davis
Which café do you work at? Sea Breeze Cafe
Have you always lived in FNQ? If not, where did you come from and how long have you been here? Yes, I have lived in Cairns all my life born and bred, and I still complain about the humidity.
What date did you start with the Foundation: Can’t remember the dates, two yrs within the Foundation and work at Sea Breeze Cafe.
Star sign: Taurus the Bull
Interests, hobbies, past times: Going to country markets, entertaining, and gardening. I’m the second eldest out of six (and yes, we are all a year apart) I’m guessing not much to watch on tv back in the days.
What do you do with yourself when you are not working with us? If I’m not working, fishing, gardening, walking my two boys Boston and Skippa (Dogs)
What do you enjoy most about working with us? The Far North Queensland Hospital Foundation is a non-profit, charitable organization. Their goal is to improve the quality and accessibility of health care in our region for everyone. In other words, we want all Far North Queenslanders – from mums and bubs to veterans and everybody in between – to enjoy a full range of quality health care services close to home….. Which makes me proud to be part of the family.
