Ben brings business and support work experience, along with a deep belief that every person deserves support that genuinely fits their life.
I’ve been running businesses in Australia for the past five years, including a cleaning business that works mainly with NDIS participants. I’ve also worked as a support worker, and I have genuinely enjoyed getting to know people within the NDIS community.
One of my favourite parts of the cleaning business is simply spending time with our participants and getting to know them. When you visit someone’s home regularly for years, you naturally build a real relationship. You learn about their life, their interests and the things that matter to them. I genuinely love that part of the job.
Working closely with participants has shown me how important it is to find someone who is not only reliable and qualified, but who genuinely suits you as a person. Everybody has different needs, interests, passions and dreams. The right support worker should understand that and help you live the life you want.
That is a big part of why we created Honourable Support. We want to make finding support easier and more personal. We want participants to be treated like real people, while also supporting good independent support workers who genuinely care about the work they do.
I spent most of my adult life in Thailand after moving there when I was 17, before returning to Australia five years ago. I speak fluent Thai, and during my time there I was involved in helping people through schools, prisons and different parts of the community. Those experiences taught me a lot about people and showed me how much of a difference genuine support can make in someone’s life.
Outside of work, I’m a proud husband and father of two teenagers. My family is a huge part of my life. I also love working with my hands, going to the gym and finding ways to build and create things.
I believe everyone deserves the chance to discover what they want from life and to have the right people beside them to help make it possible. That is what Honourable Support means to me, and I’m proud to be building it with two good friends.
