Abby Redman - WA Coordinator

Abby Redman commenced employment with the Beacon Foundation in August 2009 as the W.A Co-ordinator

Abby has worked in both the UK and Sydney as a sales co-ordinator for marketing companies and on her return to Perth began work as a consultant and trainer with a national Job Network. She worked with the long term unemployed and highly disadvantaged jobseekers. While working as a trainer she found working with youth very rewarding and says her experience during this time helps her relate and communicate with the students involved in the No Dole program.

After witnessing firsthand what long periods of unemployment can do to people, Abby is passionate about assisting youth to gain the knowledge and skills required to enable them to take responsibility for their own futures and choose a positive pathway.

In her spare time Abby is an artist, painting both ceramics and on canvas. She sells her work and has also had several pieces published in a national magazine.
