Careers for inspiration 

I couldn’t resist sharing this inspirational video from Belonging Matters - Talks that Matter. 

A great snapshot for families, young people and prospective employers considering hiring a person with an intellectual disability. 

Harvey O'Dwyer works part time at Waves Leisure Centre in the City of Kingston, Melbourne, and in this video we follow him during his typical shift at work.

We meet Harvey's supervisor, Georgia Keady who explains the valuable contribution Harvey makes to the business in terms of preparing for busy periods, his focus, customer service and team building strengths (amongst other things)! We chat to several of Harvey's co-workers and discover the energy and spirit Harvey brings to the team every time he strides through the Waves entrance for his shift.
