Verena Coombe – The Hard Parts Behind a High Profile
The BRAVE podcast series is a Townsville Community Information Centre initiative that aims to share the inspiring stories of ordinary people from our local community.
Please note, this episode discusses domestic violence. If this subject or anything else discussed in this series raises any concerns for you, please contact support services in your local area. In Australia, these services include 1800RESPECT (1800 737 732), LifeLine (13 11 14), and Beyond Blue (1300 224 636).
Most of BRAVE’s guests are the unassuming people we pass on the street who have incredible stories of survival that we’ll never know about. Sometimes, though, it’s important to remember that the people who lead or inspire us every day may also have harrowing stories. In this episode, we hear from former Townsville City Councillor and current General Manager of the Townsville Business Development Centre, Verena Coombe, as she shares her life’s difficulties.
BRAVE is jointly funded by the Australian and Queensland Governments under the Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements (DRFA).
This project is produced by Damien Lawardorn.
