Leadership shaped by lived family experience
I started EAC at the beginning of 2025 after seeing the difference respectful support workers made in my brothers’ lives. Both were diagnosed with cerebral palsy at birth, and their support workers helped them build independence, work towards goals and take part in everyday life with confidence.
That experience shapes how I lead EAC. I want to build a team that listens carefully, respects each client’s choices and understands that reliable support grows from genuine relationships. We bring practical thinking, care and a positive attitude to every client and family we work with.
