Brother of the Month,
Congratulations Kurt
A huge shout out to our Brother of the Month for October 2025: Kurt Wanklin!
Kurt consistently goes above and beyond in his support work, showing genuine care, empathy, and dedication to every participant he works with. His ability to connect, listen, and provide thoughtful support truly reflects the values we stand for as an organisation. His mateship and humility truly shine through in his support work.
Thank you, Kurt, for always going above and beyond. Your care and commitment really embody what it means to be a Brother!
Meet Brothers therapy dog, Charlie!
One huge decision we made in early 2024 with a big YES was to add a four-legged member to the family.
Charlie joined Brothers at the beginning of March at 10 weeks old. Charlie is a Golden Retriever and has the most divine temperament. He is in training at the moment to be The Brothers Therapy Dog. Charlie has brought so much love to so many lives already.
We seriously can't wait until he can attend shifts with Brothers who could benefit from his company.
Connecting with Families
at the Sunshine Coast Disability Expo
We love getting out at expos and sharing what we do at Brothers. This time, Aaron and Alex had an amazing time at the Sunshine Coast Disability Expo Australia, meeting new families and spreading the word about our support services.
Sunshine Coast, we’ve got you covered! Changing lives for the better is what we’re all about, and we’re grateful for every opportunity to connect with the community.
Thanks to everyone who stopped by—we can’t wait to see you again soon! 💙
Our Brother Andy Is Shaving His Beard – And It’s All for a Good Cause
“It’s a small sacrifice for a big impact,” says Andy. “If losing the beard means gaining a set of wheels that empowers our Brothers, then I’m all in.”
​
Andy has been rocking his beard for ten years – it’s become part of the man, the myth, the legend. But in the name of mateship and making a real difference, he’s doing the unthinkable: he’s shaving it all off.

We participated in the Gold Coast Disability & Workability Expo, where we introduced Brothers Support Network to the community and connected with so many amazing people.

Brothers Team at AEIOU
Fun Run
Being awesome for autism.
On Sunday a team of Brothers attended the AEIOU Foundation fun run in Brisbane. We helped out where we could, warming up the crowd and helping runners get the run done. We had the best day, the vibe was unreal, so many people showing up to make a difference.
We so appreciate the work of AEIOU Foundation and look forward to helping to make next years run another amazing day.
