Grace Mackley is a public health professional with a Master of Public Health and five years of experience in research, health education and health promotion, working with UN agencies, universities, NGOs and the healthcare sector.
Grace founded Beyond the Bits Project to make health information clear, inclusive and easy to talk about. Our workshops and programs cover general health and wellbeing, including menstrual, sexual and reproductive health, and are adapted to each community we work with. Started in Sweden, the project now works with pharmacies and health services, and community groups across Australia.
Earlier in Grace’s career, she spent four years in recruitment and human resources, which enables her to have a practical understanding of how organisations run and what teams need.
Clear, engaging and inclusive health information for your community, with no extra work for your team.
Health education that doubles as team-building.
Open, shame-free learning for anyone.
