New staff have arrived at Wurrumiyanga bringing positive energy, experience and new directions to the team. TITEB is pleased to introduce three new team members in the areas of CDP Activities, Womens Centre and CDP Employment Services at Wurrumiyanga.

Geoff Collins, CDP Activities Coordinator

Geoff joined TITEB in May 2019 after six years working for RJCP/CDP in Arnhem Land. After a brief stint as Post Placement Support Consultant, he moved into his current position. Geoff aims to build up the program to the point where both participants and supervisors are fully engaged and genuine leaders in the community.

Brenda is a qualified chef and teacher. She grew up in Cooktown FNQ and has lived in Ramingining, Galiwinku and Milingimbi working as an Employment Consultant, Women’s Activity Coordinator and Site Manager. Her main goal for the Women’s Centre is to help Tiwi women build their skills and independence – and to try some bush food!

Tabatha came to Bathurst in June 2019 to support Tiwi people in securing employment on the Tiwi Islands. She has over 27 years of experience in the community services sector, and a special interest in helping people with a disability, elderly people, people experiencing mental health, and disadvantaged youth.
