Chris Mayers was placed into employment with Turpentine Park by Essential Personnel, a Disability Employment Service provider with offices throughout the Illawarra, Southern Highlands, and Shoalhaven areas. When Chris came to Essential Personnel his interests in employment were horticulture, working with dogs, and abattoir work. Chris had completed Certificate's in Horticulture and Meat Processing but was finding it difficult to find work in the Shoalhaven after the family re-located from the Central West. Chris had overcome many hurdles within the employment sector but continued to think positively about work and focused on his "Ability" not his Disability.
Robert and Trish Price offered an opportunity for Chris and he has accepted it with open arms. During the first six months on the job Chris progressed from basic labouring duties to completing most of the roles of the other more experienced Stablehands at Turpentine Park.
Chris feels so passionate about the job and his work that he is considering a traineeship to improve his knowledge of the industry and to achieve a qualification. This would be a fantastic achievement for Chris, who has overcome many obstacles and often found tertiary education a little difficult. Chris feels that the love of his job, guidance by his employer, and skills currently learnt will enable him to successfully complete his training to become a qualified Stablehand.
