Damien Slockee of Banora Point mentors young males living with disability, helping them pursue goals such as employment, driving and greater independence. His work began as a teacher's aide, where he recognised a need for consistent role models beyond school hours. Drawing on more than seven years of mentoring, he leads Bro Support Services, the Indigenous-owned business he founded in 2024. The service reaches dozens of families across the Tweed and Gold Coast. Damien's individual mentoring and inclusive group activities build practical life skills and friendships, giving young people opportunities to participate more confidently in their communities.
