If you’ve visited our BSL Brunswick op shop, it’s likely you’ll have met Sonia. She’s a talented actor and thrifting enthusiast, loves a good chat, and is extremely passionate about volunteering in the local community.

Her journey with BSL began in 2022, when she joined us with the vision of changing the face of disability through volunteering. Sonia is a proud advocate for people experiencing the everyday challenges of living with disability. And she certainly shines in her role at our BSL Brunswick op shop.

‘I like to educate people, and to help others find confidence in getting into the workplace – no matter what challenges they face’, says Sonia.

It’s people like Sonia who are the heart and soul of our op shops and are a big part in helping make our communities a better place to live.
