Darielle Robertson is FWVTA’s energetic events co-ordinator. She feels her love for organising others' lives makes her perfect for this job! Her family have their roots in Franschhoek with her mom growing up at the old Swiss Farm Excelsior. When she is not running around organising events you will catch her at the Local gym working up a sweat or in one of our amazing restaurants over indulging in all the good things in life!

Lesley Murgatroyd, the FWVTA Bookkeeper, constantly keeps this organisation on its toes. Her two daughters live overseas and she loves visiting and exploring their respective countries. She’s passionate about different cultures and spends a large amount of her time delving into the history of the places she has visited.
