Film launch – Jason Daniels’ story – surviving an electric shock from overhead powerlines
Date: Wednesday 5 May
Time: 10–11am
Location: Attend in-person in Toowoomba or via the live stream.
Contact with overhead powerlines is a major cause of death and serious injury in the agriculture industry. Jason Daniels is one of the lucky ones – he survived a serious electric shock while working on a grain farm at the age of 17. Now he’s sharing his story, so it doesn’t happen to anyone else.
Join us in-person or watch the event via the live stream to hear from Jason and his mum Di, ESO, Energy Queensland and AgForce Queensland.
Attendance is free and light morning tea will be provided. In-person spots are limited.
