Meet Trevor

​Meet Trevor, one of our exceptional team members at Assist Community Services, whose passion for making a positive impact is as diverse as his interests. In his downtime, Trevor immerses himself in collecting records and WW2 relics, maintains a healthy lifestyle at the gym, and finds joy in the world of movies. 

Trevor's professional journey is just as fascinating as his hobbies. With a remarkable 35-year career as a chef, he decided to take a leap into support work for a more flexible lifestyle. The driving force behind this career shift? The desire to spend quality time with his daughter, making it one of the best decisions he's ever made.

Having discovered Assist Community Services through an online advertisement, Trevor considers himself fortunate to have joined a team where he not only enjoys the job but also appreciates the camaraderie with his colleagues. For him, the participants, the team members, and the unwavering support from senior leaders who genuinely care stand out as key elements that make working at Assist Community Services truly special.

When asked about advice for those contemplating a career in this industry, Trevor's response is simple yet powerful: "Just do it." This mantra, he shares, has become a guiding principle that he imparts to others regularly.

Describing his typical day at work, Trevor challenges the conventional notion of it being a job. For him, every day is an opportunity to spend time with and assist wonderful individuals in living their best lives. It's not work; it's a fulfilling experience.

Reflecting on life, Trevor shares the best advice he's ever received: "It's better to regret something you have done, rather than regret something you've never done." This philosophy encapsulates his approach to embracing opportunities and living life to the fullest.

Delving into Trevor's lighter side, he reveals a surprising fun fact – he loves engaging in dumb dares. Recalling a memorable instance, he and his mates found dresses at a local thrift store and donned them at a party, turning heads in a playful and lighthearted celebration of camaraderie.
 
Trevor's journey at Assist Community Services is not just about support work; it's a testament to embracing change, enjoying diverse interests, and bringing a sense of joy to every aspect of life.
