Thomas Alexander
Kitchen Projects Lead
Thomas started working in the day service at Headway in 2010 after doing a range of jobs through his 20s, from a stint at a local paper to sessional work for a food coop. After a couple of stretches working in cafes in his teens and early 20s, he swore he’d never work in a kitchen again. But the lure of the Headway kitchen soon proved too much for him: he took on the kitchen project in 2015, and hasn’t looked back since. Thomas lives with his young family on a boat moored alongside the Headway garden, and he loves being part of Headway’s extended family.
