Bean There? Podcast Sweet Mayhem

This week the BTP Team were in Sutherland, @sweetmayhem described as the sweet spot of the shire.  Hosts, Pip and Jay spoke with owner Maria who makes dessert for Care and Concern, a local organisation that hosts a monthly dinner for homeless and vulnerable people and they chatted to representative Michelle.  Great insights into the impact of this small network of volunteers, the recognition received by Robyn McCabe who took out the Cook Community Award for her community contributions.  The St Alyoius Parish is supporting up to 40 vulnerable people every month with the help of Anna's Shop in Cronulla and The St Allyious Primary School, Our Lady of Mercy, De LaSale and Cronulla Highschools.  

 

Dylan speaks with Gavin Stewart, Champion Swimming Coach from the Sutherland Leisure Centre.

 

Pip brought her love of women in sport to the airwaves with interviews from Paula and Sophie Hunt, from Joey Netball Association and also spoke with their President Maryanne Leigh about barriers to participation, benefits of community sport and pathway to success in playing and administration.  Interviews with Inclusion Officer, Rachel Herrick from NSW Basketball and Womens Sports Australia President Carol Fox provide value an inspiration for our grass roots sports community.
