Chad teaches woodwork to people with disability

Every Tuesday morning on the beautiful Norfolk Island, Chad Pettet, Disability Support Worker for Life Without Barriers, opens the Norfolk Island Men’s Shed (NIMS) to conduct a special workshop.

Here, he teaches people with disability how to woodwork. He has two regular clients, Lleyton and Jayden, who attend twice a week. Both men have now learnt how to safely use power tools and enjoy turning basic slabs of Norfolk Pine into a finished product. In-between projects, the men play card games and darts with other NIMS members.
