A huge congratulations to Martin Duncan, AKA Sunshine Coast Foodie, on his nomination for the title of Australia’s Kindest Person! 🫶

Through his Sconetime initiative, Martin has spent years bringing people together with delicious morning teas to reduce social isolation and create meaningful community connections.

We are incredibly honoured that Martin has chosen STEPS Pathways Charity as his charity of choice. If he wins the award, STEPS Pathways Charity will receive a $25,000 donation from competition hosts HumanKind TV, helping us create more brighter futures filled with independence for young people with a disability and autism.

We extend a heartfelt thank you to Martin for his ongoing support of STEPS and for making a positive impact in the lives of so many 💚
