Let’s support Sean Wisdom, our Wealth Advice Analyst, as he tackles the Nike Melbourne Marathon this weekend, raising awareness and funds for Dementia Australia. Best of luck, Sean. You can do it! 👟
In just under 2 weeks, on Sunday 13 October, I’ll be running the Nike Melbourne Marathon (42.2km) with a mission close to my heart — raising funds for Dementia Australia Dementia Australia has been an invaluable lifeline for my family, with my grandfather living with this disease. Dementia Australia has helped us navigate the complexities of his condition, offering guidance and support when we’ve needed it most. To give back, I’ve set a goal to raise $5,000, helping Dementia Australia continue their important work for those affected by this challenging disease. Every contribution — big or small — can make an enormous difference in the lives of families like mine.

We extend our congratulations to Jayde Ward, our Director Philanthropic Services, for her representation and participation as panellist at the recent Australasian Housing Institute (AHI) event at NSW Parliament. Find out more about AHI: https://lnkd.in/gjyAWNCr #socialimpact #jbwere #affordablehousing #socialhousing
What an incredible experience it was to be invited to Parliament House by the Australasian Housing Institute (AHI), where I had the privilege of participating in a panel with such esteemed women leaders. It was an honour to share the stage with Minister Rose Jackson (Minister for Water, Housing, Homelessness, Mental Health, Youth, and the North Coast), Rebecca Pinkstone (CEO, Homes NSW), Yumi Lee (CEO, Older Women's Network NSW), and Caroline Gurney (CEO, Future Generation). The discussion highlighted the power of collaboration between sectors as we explored innovative solutions to the housing and homelessness crises. With the Building Homes for NSW program's record $6.6 billion social housing and homelessness investment, it’s clear that decisive action is on the horizon. The passion and commitment in the room were palpable—everyone present was ready to work together to address these pressing challenges. Thank you, Unis Goh and Kellie Dunn for organising such an inspirational forum, and for creating the space where ideas and opinions could converge in the spirit of finding real solutions. I left feeling energised and optimistic about what we can achieve together JBWere #HousingSolutions #Collaboration #socialimpact #womeninleadership
