Team stories

We’ve been caring for people for over 30 years, and our people have some amazing tales to tell.

Feros Care is built on stories. For a start, there’s the story of our founder, George Feros; a proud Kytherian-Australian man who migrated from Greece at the age of twenty.

George lived in Byron Bay and dreamed of an organisation where medical care and community spirit could combine to support those in need in the beachside town. Armed with a wooden collection box, a pushbike and a brass bell, George made his way around town encouraging donations to make his dream a reality. 

Over three decades later, we’re still making George proud, offering a range of disability and aged care support services across Australia while encouraging diversity and accessibility for all.

Here are the stories of our Local Area Coordinators and Community Development Coordinators, who are embedded in their own communities, living the Feros Care values every day.
