our nights like this ... it is often not a 'team sport' ... different tastes, different games... people gravitate to their own things

i was happy to see the banter and mateship growing with some of the guys hanging with each other, bustin balls, kickin arse, beating the high score 🤣

a few newbies in the group and a few that we cant put in the videos or other people in the backgroynd so i cant use ... often i dont video this stuff

was a good night out

wishlist ... we have been asked for more girls in the group ... i will do a vid tomorrow about this

A lot of what we do in the group with these young fellas with disabilities is helping them to prove to themselves

Things like

They can

They matter

They are worth it

They are deserving

Because for a lot of the guys i meet they dont know that yet.

School dosnt just teach the curriculum from the teachers, a lot more is taught on the playground

For some those lessons lift them up, for others it can bring them down

What we do is more than fitness and exercise.

They teach me what they need

They also hold a big frikkin mirror up to me aswell

Often i walk away from a chat with one of the boys thinking geez i needed to hear that too 🤔

We asked 15 people if they’d give us a few minutes… all no.

She was the last one we asked.

Didn’t know there was a reward. Just gave us her time, had a chat, and was genuinely lovely.

That’s why she got the $50 gift card.

This is the direction we’re heading with our marketing now. Instead of pouring money into ads, we’re putting it back into real people and real moments.

We also had Carter with us, getting hands-on experience through his SLES program, building confidence and skills out in the community.

If you like what we’re doing, help it reach more people. A comment or share goes a long way.

We’re using our ad money to give back to locals instead. Every comment helps more people see this and keeps it going.

Giving away free gifts today was eye-opening. People didn’t realise they were about to receive something for free.

What actually took the longest was simply asking for two minutes of their time to chat with someone with an intellectual disability.

The legends who showed patience, kindness and empathy in that moment stood out straight away. It was great meeting these people, and everyone who received something was well deserving.

We had a lot of fun today. Plenty more giveaway videos and behind the scenes moments still to come. Please like, comment and follow because the more support these get, the more we can keep doing things like this locally.

I hired young Carter today to help me spread the word about what we do by giving out prizes to some locals in Helensvale.

He smashed it and will be getting a great reference letter for his resume from me.

Instead of spending money on normal ads, I thought I’d try putting that budget back into the community. Some prizes were big, some small, but all about creating a bit of fun and connection.

It was also a good opportunity for Carter, who is involved in SLES program with working toward employment on the Gold Coast. Talking to strangers (there were a lot) building confidence, decision making (choosing who to give a gift to was his job not mine 😈) reading, public speaking, remembering lines and more

My thinking is simple, giving back to locals feels better than paying for ads.

If you like the idea, please help us out with a like, comment, or share. If it works, I’d rather keep spending my marketing budget this way than the typical way.

And if you would like to help with work for these young people with disabilities you can reach out to Pathstart directly :)

i was asked yesterday about night time sessions with it getting darker

this was also last night (talk about timing)

the trailer has lights. we are in a rural area (as you may see in the background) that has no streetlights ... so it is pretty dark. The trailer does have enough light to train in and the lights can be angled towards where they are needed

We help make it easier for these guys to make friends

Want some new friends? These guys are all welcoming and inclusive, we encourage everyone to be themselves AND there are certificates!

1 certificate a week ... so they are rare ... rare and valuable

We earn our wins, when we win we know we deserve it and we also get to learn from the wins of those around us
