In Pormpuraaw, we had the privilege of welcoming Chris Boyle, Director of the Stand By U Foundation, to join us on Country alongside Council CEO Janelle Menzies and the team at the Pormpur Paanthu Aboriginal Corporation, led by CEO Ganthi Kuppusamy.
Together, we delivered 10 Stand By U safety devices to support women and families experiencing domestic violence in the Pormpuraaw community.
These devices are more than technology, they’re a lifeline. They provide connection, safety, and support at the very moments people need it most.
Our partnership with Stand By U is grounded in a simple belief: every community deserves safety, dignity, and the chance to thrive. Being able to bring this initiative to Pormpuraaw, in direct collaboration with local leaders and the women’s shelter, is something we are incredibly proud of.
This is what meaningful community investment looks like, working side by side with the people who know their community best, and ensuring every step we take together leaves a lasting impact.
