Meet Bradley, a community capacity builder helping people with disability be seen and heard. 🤝

Through listening, advocacy and genuine connection, Bradley supports people to speak up about what matters to them and helps them to feel confident taking part in their communities. His work is focused on strength, choice and belonging.

'You can’t manufacture a strong relationship, it’s something that develops over time,' he says. 'The longer I’m in this role, the more effective I’ll be.'

Every student at this primary school in Canberra is learning Auslan as a second language. 🏫

In addition to fostering a more inclusive environment for Deaf and hard-of-hearing classmates, teachers are regularly refining the program, impressed by how quickly their students are progressing.

‘For all [our deaf students], it's an increase in confidence with their signing, an increase in their Deaf pride,’ says Auslan teacher Simone Xirakis.
