The 2025 Chevron City to Surf for genU marked 51 years of WA’s most iconic community event – and 15 years of partnership between Chevron and genU in Western Australia.

With nearly 29,000 participants and more than 1,600 Team Chevron members lacing up, the event once again showcased our shared commitment to inclusion and supporting West Australians living with disability.

Every genU hamper tells a story, and at the heart of it are our incredible Supported Employees who bring them to life.

👋 Meet Matthew and Terry.

From slicing tomatoes to seasoning sauces, they help create the delicious products from The Otway Kitchen that feature in our latest range of hampers. Their care and attention to detail make every gift extra special.

By choosing a genU hamper, you’re not only giving a thoughtful gift, but you’re also supporting meaningful employment for people with disability, just like Matthew and Terry. 💜

🎁 This Christmas, give your team a gift that gives back. Choose genU hampers and make a real difference: https://bit.ly/46eNtkx

Empowering Lives Through Behaviour Support 🤲

At genU, we believe everyone deserves to feel happy, healthy, and in control of their own life. Our Behaviour Support team brings this belief to life every day.

Meet Liz Johnston and Mackenzie Crane — two dedicated Behaviour Support Practitioners who work tirelessly alongside clients, families, carers, and support networks. Together with their allies in genU's Allied Health team, they deliver personalised behaviour support plans that:

✅ Enhance quality of life
✅ Reduce concerning or harmful behaviours
✅ Minimise use of restrictive practices

Through collaborative assessment and ongoing care, they create safe, calm environments where people can truly thrive. As Liz puts it:
“I’m deeply passionate about supporting the spectacular young people, their families, and networks in my role here at genU.”

This is what inclusion looks like in action.
