Tharindu studied biomedical science back in 2015 and now works at Alfred Health as a participation lead of lived experience, which is what exactly Tharindu? As a lived experience participation lead, I have the privilege of working alongside community members who have lived experience of mental illness and who access mental health support services. And I work with them to ensure that their voices are heard in system reform activities, but also in service development and service evaluation. I get to uplift and empower those voices and make sure that they're involved in decision-making. I would 100% say that I was able to link the way that I was taught to interact and learn and communicate here within the Viber degree into how I'm able to do that now in my role, which is great.
