About Ajay

I am a tradesman at heart - a carpenter and a business owner for over 40 years who brings practical, hands-on leadership and problem solving skills. For every challenge, I have the right tool.

I chose to stand for Mr. Harbour City Bears because I believe in the power of community and self-expression. For a long time, I lived in a repressive relationship that took away my confidence and self-esteem. But in the last few years, I've met amazing, kind people who helped me bounce back and embrace who I truly am.

I love being part of the bear community as it feels like family – a place where there's always someone there for you, ready with a big hug and no judgment. The bears have given me a sense of belonging and support, with plenty of events to attend and like-minded folks to share good times with.

What can I bring to the sash? Leadership, dedication, mental and emotional support and a promise to give it my all. I'm here to inspire and ensure that every member of our community knows I've got their back.

Why have you chosen Northcott as your charity?

Northcott is a disability service provider supporting children and adults with disability to build a genuinely inclusive society.

I chose Northcott because I have witnessed a close friend benefit from the services in particular with housing and employment.

We hope you enjoyed Bear Pride week for 2024!
