About


Hi. My name is Greg. I am a 62 year old married man. I reside at Mount Nathan with my wife, my daughter and her two daughters. I also have 1 male and 1 female Border Collies. I am a retired Qld Police Officer having served 40 years on the Gold Coast. I have abundant 'life skills and experience' and believe I would value add to the development of those that I am able to assist in the community. I have volunteered at Gold Coast Sport and Recreation and have also performed carer duties in a private capacity under the NDIS program. As a Police Officer I was the District Peer Support Officer, and worked with members suffering from depression, OCD and PTSD among other health issues. I enjoy most sports, watching movies and TV, socializing, bushwalking, self-development - both physical and mental. I love to cook and would very much be suited to assisting someone with regards to developing shopping skills, food hygiene, cooking, preparation and storage of food. I have a Lexus RX Hybrid SUV and a Mitsubishi Pajero Sport 4WD which are available to be used. Both vehicles are in excellent condition. I am available to assist on a 24/7 basis if required. If you wish to know more about me, please feel free to email me - brakey@bigpond.net.au - I look forward to hearing from you and maybe assisting you in some way.
