A Defence Family Story
A story… a story for some but a reality for others.
Still Relevant Lessons With Our Pilot
Yesterday I was asked by a researcher at a University about the pilot, particularly at this time. I gave an outline as I saw it and felt it is worth sharing here… Whilst many are pivoting, Mind For Me has the same direction and model. What has changed is the need for support and…
Mind For Me’s Care Coins
So many options out there involve you paying for a babysitter, pet sitter, for bits of help around your home and garden but Mind For Me has taken a different approach. If you’re wanting to spend money for a hand in your neighbourhood, there are dozens of platforms and apps to do that but Mind…
SDGs: Goal 8 – Decent Work & Economic Growth
This is an important goal Mind For Me contributes to. We believe in empowerment. In giving people a real opportunity to improve their circumstances. When you’re struggling it feels like the World wants to kick you whilst you’re down. Late fees and penalties, inability to meet needs… it all stacks up against you. In Australia…

Our Goal: Reduce Loneliness Next Christmas
It’s been a hard slog the last couple of years. Personal sacrifices to fund and develop the Mind For Me platform to where it’s at now. That’s nothing compared to what many go through. This time of year makes it even harder with the feeling of loneliness as everything around reminds us of time being…
SDGs: Goal 2 – Zero Hunger
The end of all forms of hunger and malnutrition forms the second of the Sustainable Development Goals. Although there are regions suffering immensely from famine and hunger and Mind For Me aims to provide sustainable solutions globally, forms of malnutrition can be found worldwide. We believe in empowering people, in providing them ways to improve…
