Who We Are, What We Do
For 30 years Bridging the Gap (BTG) has been
firmly embedded in WA’s local communities
providing a diverse range of Federal and State
funded programs to deliver employment, career
development and training services through
partnerships with community based organisations
across the Perth to Peel region.
With offices in Rockingham, Kwinana, Spearwood,
Wembley, Mandurah and an award winning
community nursery and training facility in
Casuarina (Ngulla Training & Community Centre),
BTG aims to develop and grow people and
communities by providing caring and innovative
lifelong learning and development opportunities
and employment services.
Over 6000 people access BTG’s range of
employment and community services annually,
and BTG has a track record of consistently
achieving outcomes for our clients. With regards
to our major contracts BTG is currently in the top
10 per cent of providers nationally for Job
Services Australia (JSA) delivery and the only
Perth based agency awarded a five star rating for
the whole Employment Services Area from the
Department of Employment.
Additionally, BTG boasts the highest
commencement and outcome rates for Youth
Connections delivery in Western Australia.

About Us

From the Chair
Each year seems to bring its own special challenges and successes. The past year
has seen a dramatic expansion of Bridging the Gap’s employment services
contracts. Our Mandurah office has grown from zero job services clients to now
be the biggest office in the Bridging the Gap network. The more established
offices in Rockingham, Kwinana, Cockburn and Spearwood have continued to be
rated at the highest levels of any job service provider across Australia. The year
has required acquisition of new premises in Mandurah and the board is looking
to expand into other areas through next year.
Changing governments mean changing policies and the highly successful Youth
Connections Program which assists students transitioning from school into work
will finish at the end of this year. Bridging The Gap though will not abandon these job seekers and is
continually seeking new opportunities and initiatives such as our Crossing Point to assist young people. In
addition we have established a successful academy in Kwinana to identify local employers’ needs and train
potential employees to fulfil those requirements, and in the next year we will expand the concept
throughout the southern suburbs.
The biggest challenge for the remainder of 2014 will be to successfully tender for the next employment
services contract. The new contract will be substantially different from our current offering and we will
need to further hone and develop our staff and management skills to be successful in winning and
implementing this new direction.
We have had considerable board and management changes over the past year and I thank those who have
left us and served us so well. I am particularly pleased with the strengthening of board capability through
the addition of marketing and financial skills and strong community connections in the cities of Mandurah,
Rockingham and Kwinana.
In particular I would like to thank our CEO Colin Kerr for his strong leadership and guidance. The staff, the
management and board look forward to celebrating a successful year for Bridging The Gap’s 30th year of
operations.

From the CEO
This year has been one of the busiest years in our history for all staff at Bridging
the Gap with increases in our employment services, new initiatives for services
to community and managing the ceasing of a number of funded programs. With
consultant Tammy Tansley we embarked upon an analysis of our internal
systems and have undergone a structural and cultural change so that we are
prepared for the future.
Financially we have seen pleasing turn around since the previous year. The
improvement is due to increased business and performance in job services, as
well as new business streams.
Our delivery in Job Services Australia has more than doubled since last year with
significant increases in our business share in Central West Metro and Mandurah / Pinjarra resulting in over
6000 unemployed seeking assistance while our Disability Employment Service has in excess of 250. This
demonstrates a significant increase in servicing our community with a total of over 7500 walking through
our doors in the year.
The next financial year will see Youth Connections (youth), Aspire (Intergenerational families) and Kwinana
Academy (community employment support) initiatives cease due to the Australian Government funding
ceasing. Additional research and work is being done currently to find other sources of funding to continue
delivery of such needed services. Together these programs engage more than 700 people from our local
community with continuing support to assist them into employment or training.
Our continuing commitment to the development of partnerships and alliances saw great success as well as
new partnerships being established. We hosted Raleigh International’s annual “Asia Pacific Conference”
which saw delegates from the UK, China, Hong Kong, Sabah, Malaysia, New Zealand, Kuala Lumpur,
Singapore and Australia attend. In conjunction with the main conference a Leaders Luncheon hosted 86
local stakeholders, supported by City of Rockingham.
Recycling of bicycles addressed the challenge of engaging youth and with Dismantle as a partner we are
now delivering this joint initiative to a variety of groups. MercyCare gave us the opportunity to be involved
in the Affordable Housing for Life initiative where together there is an opportunity for homeless youth to
obtain employment.
To prepare our business for the future, we are diversifying our income streams by creating ways of
marketing our expertise to the wider community. We are also developing waste recycling and other
products under the Green Collective brand.

5-Star Service Provider
At Bridging the Gap we pride ourselves on providing a
trusted and personalised service, because we genuinely
care about building our community one person at a
time.
The Job Services Australia (JSA) team has gone from
strength to strength over the year. This year we have
assisted more people into work than ever before. The
Rockingham, Wembley and Spearwood teams have
retained their 5-star rating from the Department of Employment for the second year running.
The Mandurah office started the year servicing around 50 Disability Employment Service clients, then in
July the Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations offered us new business with the
delivery of Job Services Australia working with approximately 590 clients. Early in 2014 we were again
offered a very large allocation of business covering Mandurah and Pinjarra. So in the space of a year the
Mandurah office grew from servicing around 50 clients to around 2090 clients!
Bridging the Gap placed 280 people into work experience over the year
Care and Persistence Pay Off
Cameron* was about 45 when he came to Bridging the Gap in 2010, suffering from alcoholism. His
Employment Advisor Kelly set him up at AA meetings, and over the course of their work together, Kelly
discovered that he had enjoyed working as a carer 20 years ago. Through our relationship with a local Aged
Care provider, Kelly and the provider supported Cameron as he completed his Certificate III in Aged Care.
“We followed up with Cameron every second day as he
was doing the course, and noticed a big improvement in
his motivation” Kelly said. So she arranged work
experience for him which resulted in Cameron being
offered a job there.
Cameron worked at the Aged Care facility for one and a
half years before he fell off the wagon. He came back to
Bridging the Gap after losing his license for drink
driving. Kelly got him back to the AA meetings, and
organised for him to attend a series of Bridging the Gap
training sessions to improve both his work readiness and
his job seeking skills. When he secured an interview, our
trainer helped him practice his interview skills.
Cameron got the job. He has been working there happily and productively for more than 6 months at the time
of writing.

Academy for Community Employment
The Academy for Community Employment offers an innovative
approach to employers’ recruitment needs. By using local
workforce talent, employers are able to select and recruit
candidates who have been prepared for their industry and
more specifically tailored to suit their company culture and
organisational values.
The academy was born in July 2013, funded by the Australian
Government Department of Human Services through the Better Futures, Local Solutions initiative.
Between then and the end of the financial year the academy registered 55 candidates, 53 of whom
achieved their Passport to Employment and 37 of those graduates secured sustainable employment.
TJ’s Story
“My culture is different to Australia and here at the Academy I got real help. I
want to say special thanks to Caroline—she helped me a lot to find a job and to
lodge my permanent resident file. Now I am working full time and I am so
happy from my job. I have two degrees from my country but was unable to find
work for a long time. I undertook some training in the beauty industry and was
able to secure a job in waxing with a business partner of the Academy. It’s
because of their connections and the advice received from the Academy that I
got the job.”
TJ—Academy Graduate
David’s Story
“Hi Academy Team, and thanks for the follow-up. Things are good. It's a pretty
convivial atmosphere and the other guys have been supportive as I learn the
ropes. This is a photo of me picking and packing! The only real pain is the
commute, as I seem to be headed trafficwards both ways! Getting used to it,
though, just so glad to be working full time and earning again the traffic is
nothing really. Thank you again for all your help and support. I was frankly
amazed by how prompt and insightful you were, and how interested in the
specifics of my situation. Getting such individualised support made all the
difference. All the best thank you again.”

Crossing Point
Bridging The Gap’s Crossing Point program inspires young people
from our communities to make positive changes to their lives and
those around them by challenging them to be all that they can be. It
is aimed at teenagers who are struggling with attendance at school.
We take them on a transformational journey that will see the
development of core leadership skills and provide the confidence to
take control of their lives.
The uniqueness of our Crossing Point program comes from the
combination of different activities that create a journey for each young person, culminating in career
development, leadership skills development and the challenge of an overnight hike and camp. We have
the flexibility to deliver any or all parts of the program. Our “classroom” is not just in the classroom but
also at the outdoor facility at Fairbridge.
This last financial year Bridging the Gap has engaged and challenged 36 young people to step out of their
comfort zone, build on their strengths and conquer their fears, and develop the skills to confidently pursue
employment or education opportunities.
In November 2013 Bridging the Gap hosted the Raleigh International Asia Pacific conference, with funding
from the City of Rockingham. 43 young leaders from around the world gathered in Rockingham for a
weekend dedicated to the latest local and global citizenship activities driven by groups of committed
people intent on making a difference in their world.
Also in November Bridging the Gap organised a Leaders Luncheon attended by 86 people to learn about
global, national, state and local initiatives are engaging young people.
FUELLS
The FUELLS or Future Understanding of Education and Lifelong Learning Skills aims to provide young people
with the skills, knowledge and practical experience that will enable them to re-engage with alternative
education. It was developed by youth workers with solid experience of the often complex barriers facing our
youth that prevent them from attending school.
In early 2014 we ran FUELLS programmes in Mandurah and Rockingham for 18
students. In the tailored semester-long programmes the young people learned
practical skills such as budgeting, healthy eating, caring for mental health,
communication skills, health and safety and job seeking skills. Most graduated
with a Certificate I in Work Preparation, and many went on to further learning
at TAFE or other training.

Ngulla Training & Community Centre
A unique community-based working and training environment, Ngulla is an innovative horticultural-based
social enterprise to generate employment and work place training opportunities for local youth, job
seekers and the community. In September 2013 Ngulla became a dedicated learning facility auspiced
through BTG’s Registered Training Organisation (RTO).
Ngulla training is focused on experiential learning with written material encompassing just 25% of core
learning. This approach was adopted to eliminate issues of numeracy and literacy shortfalls within the
student body.
In this financial year both accredited and non accredited training programs have been delivered including
work experience in building and construction, handyman projects and plant propagation as well as
Certificate II in Conservation & Land Management.
In June we developed a traineeship program for indigenous people in partnership with CSBP, where two
young trainees will attain their Certificate II in Conservation & Land Management whilst working on
projects to enhance the gardens and landscaping at CSBP’s Kwinana site. Upon completion of the
traineeship, the trainees will be supported by both Bridging the Gap and CSBP to help them gain full-time
employment. It is intended that this will be an ongoing aboriginal traineeship programme with a major
employer in the Kwinana Industrial Area.
Two social enterprises were born at Ngulla during the financial year:
Ngulla started producing “Seed Bombz”, small balls of seeds encased in Western Australian clay and
peat. The bombs can be thrown in a corner of the garden to grow native shrubs. During the
prototype phase, seed bomb packages were placed in the reception area of local businesses for
people to pay a donation and take one. The prototype demonstrated an appetite for the product in
particular demographics, which will be
developed in the next financial year.
A pilot worm farm was built, to process
the food waste from Bridging the Gap
offices. By reducing the amount of green
waste going to landfill, we can reduce the
amount of methane (a significant
greenhouse gas) produced in landfills and
at the same time produce high value
fertiliser and soil booster. The pilot was
successful and the project will be
expanded in the next year.

ASPIRE
ASPIRE was initiated in 2010 by Bridging the Gap as a social innovation, with a specific intention of
addressing the effects of long-term intergenerational unemployment in Kwinana families. ASPIRE’s core
functions include counselling, mentoring and facilitation of support networks for clients who have been
unemployed for at least one year or are affected by generational unemployment. The program is funded
by the Australian Government’s Department of Human Services through the Better Futures, Local
Solutions initiative. ASPIRE has engaged with more than 50 families over the last year. Outcomes have
included:
Employment;
Business start up;
Training;
Voluntary work/ work experience;
Engagement with relevant services; (e.g.. financial counselling, medical, welfare, food relief)
Assistance in gaining accommodation; and
Assisting clients to overcome personal barriers.
Aspiring To Change Lives
Gerald* and Beryl* come from a history of extreme hard drug use.
When ASPIRE started working with them in February 2014 they had
ceased from hard drug use but were using cannabis regularly. Beryl
was struggling with anxiety and depression and using prescription
medication (anti depressants and Valium). Neither of them were
working - Gerald had lost his job at a large hardware store because his employer had seen him doing a drug deal
in the car park. With a 7-year old child to care for, Gerald and Beryl accessed ASPIRE through outreach at Victory
Care Food Relief. They received emergency food parcels from Victory Care and pastoral care/counselling from
ASPIRE.
Two years of hard work by Beryl and Gerald, along with ongoing guidance and support from ASPIRE and other
providers, has yielded amazing results. Both have since ceased illicit drug use, and Beryl has stopped taking
Valium and cut down her anti depressant usage (under GP supervision) to the point where she is close to not
needing it. They are both accessing support from The Smith Family for their child, St Vincent de Paul, Victory
Care, Red Cross Financial Counselling and a job services provider. They have made significant financial
improvements and are focusing on proper parenting and addressing their own personal issues. Gerald has gained
full time employment in a department store and is also doing casual work plastering. He has also engaged in a
local church with their child and they continue to receive support and ongoing counselling through ASPIRE.
Both Gerald and Beryl have displayed visible evidence of improved mental health and are setting goals, taking
responsibility and adopting positive lifestyle choices.

Bike Restoration Partnership Program
Through funding from the Department of Education, Bridging the Gap
has partnered with Dismantle to deliver a unique alternative learning
opportunity for youth at risk aged 16 and 17 years.
Participants fully restore recycled bicycles for charity after completing
a comprehensive and hands-on bike mechanics course, while
Bridging the Gap delivers a wrap-around service that connects them
to further education and employment opportunities by delivering
Certificate I in Work Preparation and Career Development.
In the 2013-14 financial year there was a programm in November in
Mandurah then another one in May in Cockburn, totalling around 20
participants.
Sustainability
Bridging the Gap is a supportive member of the community. We are committed to equal opportunities,
both for our own employees and those we assist into work.
To ensure our sustainability as a business, we are diversifying our income streams by creating ways of
marketing our expertise to the wider community. At the same time we are developing social enterprises
into profitable aspects of our business.
We strive to reduce our environmental footprint year on year. The worm farm pilot plant prevented
around 400kg of methane being produced over the financial year, by converting food waste into fertiliser
and soil booster. Our environmental ambassadors (called “Green Geeks”) have been promoting better
office habits including reducing paper usage and reducing electricity usage.

Bridging the Gap Gift Fund
Many BTG employees generously contribute a portion of their wage (anywhere from $2/fortnight
upwards) to the Staff Gift Fund, which is used to help worthy causes in our local community. In the
financial year ending 30 June 2014, our staff donated $1333.50. The funds were distributed to two families
in need.
Samantha* was a young single mother of two young
children. She had recently left an abusive relationship
and was getting no financial support from her ex.
Then her car broke down and the CV joints needed
replacing.
With no car she was really struggling to get her kids to
day-care and school, and to look for work which she
desperately need to make ends meet. The Gift Fund
gave Samantha $600 to assist with car repairs, school
fees/uniforms, and to buy food.
Brad* and Janet* have three
children. Brad had been
retrenched from his welding job.
He was looking for work and had
hopes of getting a job soon. Janet
was also looking for work. They
were about to have to leave their
rented house, and their best plan
was to pitch a tent in a friend’s
back yard. The Gift Fund gave
Brad and Janet $1000 to help them
through this rough period.
