"The Myer Foundation has always strived to help young people feel connected to their communities and to know their voice is important. Philanthropic foundations and the business community can have a special role in ensuring that young people are true participants in the current and future well being of their society and of the planet. Through the International River Health Conference initiative, the small company Fire Starter has possibly done more to engage young Australians in the environmental health of the country than any government or NGO in Australia."
Helen Morris, Executive Officer, The Myer Foundation

"As a close personal friend of Arron I am continually impressed by his commitment to educating the community about our environment. I had the pleasure to work side by side with him in the 1999 Young People's River Health Conference and the 2001 MDBC International River Health Conference. What he achieved at these events was inspirational."

(30 December 2001) Energy, passion and commitment to the communication task and the people involved are the characteristics of the people behind Fire Starter Communications. They really understand that communication is as much about listening as it is about selling a message. The success of the Murray Darling Basin International River Health Conference in 2001 was due to Arron Wood and his team and their ability to understand and meet the needs of the participants.
