✨ Week 4 of our 8-week ModelMATES Training Program – done and dusted! ✨

We’re so grateful to our incredible industry mentor for sharing his time, knowledge and experience with our models. 💫

From public speaking, posing, movement, photo shoots and so much more, our participants are learning skills that go beyond modelling — building confidence, creativity and connection along the way.

We can’t wait to see what Week 5 brings! 🌟

What an incredible morning at the launch of AFFORD’s Inclusive Employment Program!
 
It was inspiring to be surrounded by employers and leaders who are committed to opening real pathways to employment for people with disabilities. is an organisation that walks the talk, empowering the very community it serves, and we applaud them for leading the way.
 
A real highlight was seeing our Model MATES featured throughout the promotional material. It was so great to the the final product of our models’ work. Model MATES’ Richard Habelrih even showed Her Excellency Margaret Beasley, Governor of NSW, his photo in the brochure…her genuine engagement showed she understands the employment challenges faced by our community.
 
We can’t wait to see the positive impact AFFORD’s Inclusive Employment Program will have on our MATES and the wider disability community. This is what true inclusion looks like.

with - 💬 Did you know? People with disability make up nearly one in five Australians — yet many still face barriers in everyday life.
Together, we can change that. Start by being inclusive in how you speak, hire, and design.
