If you spend your professional life planning the best ways to protect the community, how heartbreaking would it be when you can't protect the ones you love most.
Andrew Fletcher is a unit commander for the NSW SES. During last year’s bushfires, while he worked on the NSW mid north coast coordinating relief efforts in the region, his own son lost his home to bushfire on the south coast. Andrew has served in the armed forces, fought fires, floods, been on the scene at horrific road accidents on our rural highways, and through it all he has remained focussed and caring - in his own words.

In his spare time he's fought for recognition for WWI nurses from his hometown of Bathurst, and has dipped his toe into natural heritage with the team at Jenolan Caves. With a life so colourfully lived, his story is one not to be missed.

Floods, Fires And First Responders: Andrew Fletcher

When it comes to sex work, people have a lot of assumptions. And more often than not they are of a pretty negative or judgemental nature. But, when you take a closer look at the industry you can see that escorts are care givers in the same way that nurses or occupational therapists are. But they’re working within a field that has long been associated with shame and seen as something to keep behind closed doors.

Sex Work In Modern Australia: Tash & Ellie

Although many of us may not notice, modern life relies heavily on forest products. Did you recently receive a package in the post? Was it in a cardboard box?  Is there a printed label on the cans of veggies in your pantry? 

Yet, when most people hear the word ‘logging’ they’d probably immediately think of deforestation and environment destruction.

Ross Hampton and Dean Kearney are two men whose job it is to make sure that the trees in this country that are cut down for everyday products, are done so sustainably. Ross is the CEO of the Australian Forest Products Association and Dean is from Forestry NSW. For this episode of Invisible Heroes Madeleine sat down with Ross and Dean, in the middle of a forest, to find out if there is even such a thing as sustainable forestry.

Could We Have A World Without Wood: Ross Hampton & Dean Kearney

What does a Private Investigator actually do? What sort of person hires a PI? In this episode of Invisible Heroes I am speaking with Ken Gamble -  a professional cybercrime investigator and surveillance specialist with 30 years experience in the private sector.  

Most recently Ken has also been consulting with the family of missing Belgian backpacker Theo Hayez. Theo disappeared 18 months ago in far northern NSW in the Byron Bay region. The then 18 year old vanished after leaving a Byron Bay nightclub at around 11pm on May 31st of 2019. Ken has been looking into the case on behalf of Theo’s family – and thinks there’s more to his disappearance than we have been told.

The Secret Life Of A Private Investigator: Ken Gamble

What are you doing to save the planet? Would you quit your big time job in the city and take up planting rainforests? That sounds like a fantasy, but it’s one that Michael Martin made his reality. Along with Maximo Bottaro the duo founded Reforest Now, an organisation whose mission is to grow and plant trees that will reforest cleared land in subtropical Australia and stand for generations to come. 
Their vision is to see this region as Australia's largest expanse of subtropical rainforest once again.  Maximo and Michael sit down with Madeleine in the middle of a rainforest to explain why their work is so important, and what everyday people can do to help.

Replanting Australia’s Rainforests: Maximo Bottaro & Michael Martin

How comfortable are you with your sexuality? What about consent, role-playing, the power of your own body and it’s desires?

Kink and fetish play are taboo topics usually spoken about behind closed doors. So in this episode we’re opening that door to talk about it. Roger Butler is someone who has worked in the sexual empowerment space for years, facilitating Curious Creatures sexuality workshops and helping people to become comfortable in their own skin, and with their own desires. They're easily one of Australia's most prolific sexuality workshop facilitators.

The Australian koala population is in serious decline - suffering from the effects of habitat destruction, domestic dog attacks, bushfires and road accidents. The Australian Koala Foundation estimates that there are less than 100,000 Koalas left in the wild, possibly as few as 43,000. 

Linda Sparrow is the founder of Bangalow Koalas and spends her days planting trees and creating environments that can best give our beloved koalas a fighting chance.

Saving Koalas From Extinction: Linda Sparrow

This episode contains discussions of assault, murder and sexual abuse. Listener discretion is advised. Please contact Lifeline if this raises any issues for you on 13 11 14 or lifeline.org.au 

Gary Jubelin is a former detective chief inspector who has led some of the most high profile homicide and missing persons cases in Australia’s recent history. William Tyrell, Evelyn Greenup, Colleen Walker, Clinton Speedy-Duroux; These are the names of four of the many, many people that Gary has pursued justice for. It was just last year that Gary felt his hand was forced, and handed in his resignation with the police force.

On Friday September 18th a judge will rule on an appeal before the courts; that appeal was lodged by Gary himself, after he was found guilty in April of  2020 of unlawful conduct during the high profile William Tyrrell case.

Jubelin speaks candidly about this charge, and the appeal process. And about the ongoing support he receives from the families of the victims whose crimes Gary investigated prior to his resignation.

So what is it like, to now be on the other side of the police force. Can you still be a force for good when the police force you’d worked so hard for, for all those years, is now not a welcoming place for you.

Finding William Tyrell: Gary Jubelin’s Quest for Justice

What does the word “homeless” mean to you? Tonight in Australia one in 200 people will find themselves sleeping without a roof over their head.

Leseera Kai is a woman who has faced immense tragedy in her life. As a 20 year veteran working in community welfare, she has seen it all. Fires, floods, domestic violence, homelessness. And in the last 18 months she has lost both her son and daughter and cares for her grandchildren. Through it all she still finds time to help the homeless, those at risk from their home environment, the hungry, the struggling – all within her own small community in the northern regions of New South Wales.

Her own life has been colourful – the good, the bad, and everything in between. Join us as she tells her life story, and how she stays motivated to give back to her local community.
