Committee Member

Brad Rossiter OAM is a passionate consumer advocate. He was first diagnosed with juvenile-onset diabetes at the age of 5 and despite this was a keen sportsman until being subsequently diagnosed with end-stage renal failure, and loss of sight to the point of being legally blind.

As a double amputee and a kidney and pancreas organ transplant recipient, Brad has met many people along the way. By listening to their lived experiences, he identified the need to establish an awareness & education group to support a wide cross-section of health and community issues on the South Coast.

A fervent campaigner for the consumer's voice to be heard, Brad advises many health advisory committees on the development and support of consumer engagement and is the Co-Chair and Co-founder of the Eurobodalla Renal Support Group and Organ Donor Awareness. 

He received his Order of Australia honour in 2020 for Service to Community of the Eurobodalla.
