We’re more than a team.
We’re part of the community.

Walk 'n' Talk was founded by Jordan Meehan and Chris Bennett, two Central Queensland men who knew firsthand what it cost to struggle without support. The team that has grown around them carries the same conviction. Local people, serving local people, because this community is their community too.

Jordan Meehan

Co-Founder

Community Connector | Mental Health Advocate

Jordan is one of the reasons Walk 'n' Talk exists. He co-founded this collective because he understood what it felt like to carry something alone, and decided no one else should have to. What started as conversations between mates has grown into a region-wide movement, and Jordan has been at the centre of that growth every step of the way. His conviction is simple: speaking up is a strength. He has spent years proving it.

Chris Bennett

Co-Founder

NDIS Service Manager | Family & Youth Support Lead

Chris runs the operational backbone of Walk 'n' Talk with a background in trauma-informed care and child protection. He is the person families, referrers and service partners turn to when they need someone who knows the system and will not let anyone slip through the gaps. Down-to-earth, practical, and genuinely invested in every person's story. Whether it is Child Safety, NDIS or mental health, Chris makes sure the right support lands with the right people.

Our Team

This is the crew. More than thirty people who chose this work, not because it is easy, but because they know what it means to have someone show up. Local people, lived experience, and a genuine commitment to the men, families and communities of Central Queensland. Every single one of them.

We’re building a team that leaders with heart and walks with purpose.

Real change does not come from systems. It comes from people. People who show up, listen without judgement, and walk alongside others through some of life's hardest moments.

Walk 'n' Talk is growing a workforce grounded in lived experience, community values and trauma-informed practice. Not clinical. Not corporate. Real, relational and responsive to the needs of men, young people and families across Central Queensland.

If you believe connection changes lives, if you know that showing up is the whole job, and if you want work that means something beyond the hours you put in, you are in the right place.

Whether you are a qualified support worker, a peer mentor, or someone with a lived story and the drive to make a difference, we want to hear from you. We are building a team for the long haul and we would love to meet you.
