My name is Sue and I live on my parent’s farm, Mintabie in what is known as the Mallee area which is 12kms north from a little town called Geranium in South Australia.
I care for my parents when they are up here on the farm and look after farm animals too.
I used to work in a service station that my parents used to own in a nearby town called Lameroo 5 days a week.
Presently, I am a member of SACID – South Australian Council of Intellectual Disability. I am part of the Reference Group and Peer Support Group too. I was part of their Cyber Safety Co-design Group.
I am also a member of CID – Council of Intellectual Disability in N.S.W and have volunteered at the Lameroo Day Centre and really enjoyed working there.
I am also involved with Skylight Mental Health which is a business in Adelaide that helps people with mental health challenges. I suggested to Skylight to do Outreach Services and now there are several different Health Groups that people can attend and they are also in other towns in other areas as well.
I am happy to be part of the Learn and Lead Group and am very passionate about advocating, helping and supporting people with disability!!
