Steve Ralph is Hireup’s first Board Observer. He began his six month observership in January.
When I sustained a complete spinal-cord injury, three years ago, my life turned upside down. I knew nothing of the world of disability. ‘Hireup’ was not a company I’d even heard of, let alone used.
Today I sit in on its board meetings, offering the perspective of a client managing my ‘new normal’ with the aid of support workers. In return, I’m learning how such a fantastic business operates behind the scenes and all that goes into running an organisation of Hireup’s size, ambition and purpose.
