Robert has been working as a support worker for many years both down in Melbourne and locally in Bendigo. His passion is connecting people to form lifelong friendships and to provide the best social opportunities for them with the highest quality of care.

Robs working career has also seen him gain a broad range of skills in management, hospitality, landscaping and building as well as being an automotive mechanic. He had a successful recycled timber furniture business which has now morphed into a workshop that teaches people with disabilities to make buggy’s for pets with mobility issues. He also loves tinkering on his old vintage cars in the workshop.

Rob is sports mad and will talk to you for hours about any sport of your choosing, especially if it’s about his beloved Magpies. When he plays golf he is otherwise known as Slice-McLefty and if he ever goes missing you will no doubt find him at the nearest lawn bowls club polishing up his skills or competing in tournaments.
