Celebrating Our Brothers | 2025 Team Awards
At Brothers, our values aren’t just words, they’re lived every day through the actions of our team. This year, we’re proud to recognise four Brothers who truly embody what we stand for: Mateship, Growth Mindset, Humility, and Passion.
These awards celebrate the people who show up consistently, lead by example, and make a genuine difference in the lives of the men they support. We’re incredibly grateful for the impact they make every day.
🏆 Growth Mindset Award 2025: Gavin
The Growth Mindset Award recognises someone who doesn’t just talk about growth they live it every day.
Gavin couldn’t be with us on the night, as he was out doing night fishing in Noosa with a participant which really says everything you need to know.
Gavin supports a wide range of participants and consistently goes above and beyond. He’s always bringing forward ideas, looking for ways to help his participants grow, try new activities, and experience new things.
He is extremely reliable, works a significant number of hours each week, and never settles for “good enough.” Gavin is always looking to improve, do better, and genuinely change lives for the better.
That is what a growth mindset looks like in action, not just words, but lived values.
We’re incredibly lucky to have Gavin on the team, and this award is very well deserved.
👏 Congratulations Gavin
🏆 Mateship Award 2025: Jack
The Mateship Award recognises someone who truly represents what mateship looks like within the Brothers team.
Jack is one of those people who just connects effortlessly. No matter who he is supporting, he builds rapport quickly and makes people feel comfortable being themselves. He is reliable, supportive, and a great mentor to others.
Participants genuinely enjoy spending time with Jack, families feel confident when he’s around, and time and time again we hear the same feedback after introductions: “Can we please have him on the team?”
That kind of feedback doesn’t come from trying, it comes from being genuine, showing up consistently, knowing when to have a laugh, and modelling strong, positive relationships.
We’re very lucky to have Jack, and the impact he has across so many participants does not go unnoticed.
👏 Congratulations Jack
🏆 Humility Award 2025: Gerald
Humility isn’t about grand gestures or seeking recognition it’s about quiet strength, leading by example, and showing up without expectation.
The Brother receiving this award has embodied humility from the moment he joined Brothers. Through his willingness to listen, his generosity with his time, and the genuine care he shows his participants, Gerald consistently demonstrates what humility looks like in action.
His character is admirable. He’s always willing to have a chat, offer support, or simply be there when it matters. He leads without ego and supports without needing acknowledgement.
Gerald has been with Brothers since almost the beginning, and we are incredibly grateful that he continues to be such an important part of our family.
👏 Congratulations Gerald
🏆 Passion Award 2025: Kurt
If there is one word that defines Kurt, it’s passion.
Kurt joined Brothers in 2025 and from the very beginning has shown relentless dedication to his participants. He is always active in chats, sharing learnings, offering advice, and supporting both participants and fellow Brothers.
The relationships Kurt has built are strong, genuine, and deeply meaningful and it’s abundantly clear how much he cares about the people he supports.
Every conversation with Kurt reflects his commitment and energy. His passion for the work he does is unmistakable, and we’re proud to recognise that dedication.
👏 Congratulations Kurt
