Celebrating Former EGT Apprentice Chelsy Quintana: Winner of the Inaugural Gary Livett Award

EGT is proud to celebrate the outstanding achievements of former electrical apprentice Chelsy Quintana, who has been awarded the inaugural Gary Livett Award for Outstanding Mental Health Support and Assistance.

This prestigious award recognises Chelsy’s exceptional commitment to supporting the mental health and wellbeing of those around her in the electrical industry. Her compassion, leadership, and drive to create safer, more supportive workplaces reflect the very best of EGT’s No Harm values.

A Leader in Mental Health Support

Throughout her apprenticeship and early career, Chelsy has consistently demonstrated genuine care for the wellbeing of her colleagues, a willingness to advocate for safe and supportive work environments, leadership that inspires and reassures others, and a strong commitment to reducing the stigma surrounding mental health in the electrical trade. Her efforts have had a meaningful and lasting impact on her peers, host employers, and the wider electrical community.

A Reflection of EGT’s Values

At EGT, we believe apprentices are not only developing technical skills, they are becoming future leaders of the electrical industry. Chelsy’s dedication to mental health awareness is a powerful example of how apprentices can positively influence worksites, teams, and communities.

Stories like Chelsy’s highlight the strength and character of the apprentices who come through EGT. We are incredibly proud to see both current and former apprentices making meaningful contributions - not just in their work, but in the lives of the people around them.

Congratulations, Chelsy

We congratulate Chelsy on this outstanding achievement and thank her for the important work she continues to do in promoting mental health and wellbeing within the electrical industry.
