Melodi Rowe
I am a mother and grandmother first and passionately.
I have worked in the community service sector for almost 15yrs. supporting young people through drug rehabilitation and homelessness. For the last 9yrs I have supported adults of varied ages and abilities reach independence an achieve goals they previously thought they never could.
I have a strong understanding of the complexities in raising children with invisible disabilities as well as the struggles to have people understand the stigma attached to these.
I founded Sharing Moments as I want to be part of the change in the sector that sees parents and support networks acknowledged and seen as an integral part of any support structure for people living with a disability.
I want to be part of the change in the sector that sees no wrong door opened but rather a gateway to multiple services. My vision is that Sharing Moments becomes that universal door for all people of all ages and abilities that reach out.
When I am not at work, I am spending time with my family relaxing at the beach or in the martial arts dojo being the cheer mum on the sidelines for my children.
Greg Edwards
As a father of 2 young boys with varied disabilities I have experienced firsthand the struggles not only to access but understand how to get the best out of an NDIS package.
I have over 9yrs experience working with adults and children with a broad spectrum of disabilities and abilities supporting them to gain personal growth and independence. Through helping them with daily living skills, attending community events and school-based tutoring.
I help found Sharing Moments as I believe strongly that everyone has strengths and achievements that should be celebrated and enjoyed. That everyone should be supported to gain self-fulfilment how they identify that for them.
When I am not striving to support others, I get enjoyment from spending time with my family relaxing watching the football – go Essendon!

Leah, Hackham
The day our daughter Zara was diagnosed with leukemia our world crumbled and our hearts broke. It is now three years later and Zara our superstar is recovering better than we could have wished for. Greg has been Zara’s support worker and has become apart of our family. Through the good and the bad Greg was always by our side. Greg always knew the right thing to do and say. Greg took a huge weight off our shoulders, and we are forever thankful.

Laura, Southern Suburbs
“We wanted to send a testimonial for parents who follow in our footsteps. We are the parents of a daughter with leukemia who Greg has been working with her for 3 years. We cannot speak highly enough of Greg at Sharing Moments. Sharing Moments is not the first agency we have had dealing with, however Greg, our daughter’s Support Worker has by far the most approachable, caring, practical, and hands-on attitude you could ever wish for. Our entire family feels very fortunate to have Greg. We not only think of Greg as a friend, but part of our family..”
