Paul Mitchell
BikeShed Coordinator
Paul runs the new Youth BikeShed program that provides young people across the Rockhampton region with a welcoming place to make friends and engage in meaningful projects while improving their physical and mental health.
The program is focused on intervention and provides young people with activities that promote positive behaviours and prevent them from engaging in anti-social behaviour.
“All of the activities are about the journey of respect, self-regulation, communication and teamwork getting to the end goal of a positive personal outcome.”
Paul has diverse experience, having travelled 70 countries and lived in Canada, London and throughout Australia. He’s spent 30 years working in mental health, disabilities, community services and education.
He’s run for local council at Livingstone, and devoted himself to intervention programs, even taking a group to New Guinea to complete the Kokoda trek.
