Meet the Founders

The brothers who lit the fire.

Kunjur was founded by Graham and Bernard — two community men who believe that strong men build strong communities and strong futures.

Graham

Co-founder & Cultural Leader

Biography

Graham is a respected community man who has spent his life walking alongside brothers, Elders and young men on Country. His leadership is grounded in culture, lore and a deep belief that healing happens in community.

Experience

Decades of community work across men's wellbeing, cultural mentoring and grassroots leadership — guiding men back to connection, purpose and strength.

Graham saw too many brothers carrying their load alone. Kunjur was born from a simple truth: when men sit together, yarn honestly and stand strong for one another, communities heal.

Community leadership

Holds cultural authority and mentors Sparks across communities, keeping the work culturally safe and led by mob.

Bernard

Co-founder & Program Lead

Biography

Bernard brings lived experience, warmth and a steady hand to Kunjur. He believes every brother deserves a safe place to be heard and the support to keep going.

Experience

Extensive experience in men's healing, suicide prevention and community program delivery — building practical pathways that meet men where they are.

Bernard has walked the hard road himself. He turned that journey into purpose, helping design the yarning circles and resource kits that make Kunjur work on the ground.

Community leadership

Leads program design and the Spark network, making sure brothers have the tools, training and backing they need.
