Frida has been part of Team Interchange for the past eight years. Starting off as Community Facilitator and Support Worker, she gained a great amount of front row experience. Frida now uses her amazing skillset as Peer Mentor and Support Superstar in our Maddington Neighbourhood.
Frida says, Interchange has supported her greatly over the years, helping her evolve and giving her many opportunities to flourish. She truly enjoys working within the disability sector doing what she loves most – helping people to live a good life.
Our Peer Mentor enjoys enabling the people she supports to be more empowered, confident and independent. As well as helping people to connect with their local community. Frida has a passion to ensure everybody belongs;
People with disability have the right to be treated equally to everybody else. I am passionate that people are seen for their individuality and ability rather than their disability.
Good on you Frida! And if doing an awesome job at Interchange was not enough, Frida also does voluntary work at her local church and is a singer and song leader. She enjoys playing the guitar, watching food reviews on tv and the most important part in her life is her beautiful family.
