We’re a small team with big ideas and a passion for doing things well.

Alec MacAlpine

Director/CEO/Support Worker

Alec is the kind of support worker who meets you where you are — and then walks alongside you toward where you want to be.

After a full career in the mines, Alec made a life-changing leap into disability support, driven by a genuine fascination with people, connection, and the human mind. Currently studying psychology, he brings that curiosity into every shift — whether he's helping someone build confidence in the kitchen, work toward employment, get outdoors, or simply have a good conversation with someone who actually listens.

No two days look the same. Yard work, farm work, cooking, home assistance, skill building, working toward employment — Alec is hands-on and genuinely invested in the bigger picture of what each client is working toward.

Outside of work he's happiest fishing, at the gym, or anywhere outdoors — and that energy translates directly into his work. For a number of his younger clients, Alec naturally steps into a big brother role, finding that shared passion that makes the whole relationship click. He works with participants of all ages, always tailoring his approach to the individual, and keeps close contact with families and support networks to make sure everyone is informed and working in the same direction.

For Alec, this isn't just work — it's where he's meant to be.

    Jodie

    Support Worker
    Bundaberg & Moore Park Beach region

    Jodie is one of those people who makes a home feel calmer just by being in it. A mum of six, she brings the kind of warmth, patience and gentle care that only comes from years of looking after a busy family — and she genuinely loves helping people feel comfortable and cared for in their own space.

    Jodie works to a commercial cleaning standard, brings a lifetime of practical home management, and is gentle, consistent and encouraging in everything she does. The same friendly face every visit — always at your pace, never any pressure.
