She has experience in a number of different occupations, and though technically retired, she still supports the aged care sector in multiple ways. Rachel's a mum and a grandma and 'mother hen' to many at St Cath's. Any spare time she has is spent in her garden, knitting or dabbling in art.

By trade John is a spoken word poet, author and performer, John's work centres around notions of hope, identity and wonder. He grew up in a family of five boys, so he has always had an audience. He disliked high school but found his creative voice in art, poetry and performance. When he is not helping out at St Cath's he is also supporting the Fireplace Christian Creative Arts ministry as well as being an active presence in the Melbourne poetry community. John is perhaps best known for his big hugs and endless patience.
