The Mable Sole Trader Advisory Council (or STAC) meets 4 times a year to ensure the interests of the Mable community (particularly sole traders) are represented in the development of Mable’s policies and platform.
At Mable, our vision is for an inclusive society where everyone belongs. We put our community at the centre of everything we do to achieve this vision. We practise human-centred design and seek feedback so we can continuously improve.
Since 2020, the Advisory Council program has been important in guiding our business and decisions relating to the platform.
It has helped ensure our business align with the views and goals of our community, including older people, people with disability and independent support workers.
In 2024, with the company restructured under the Attain Healthtech brand, we reassessed the council, adding a third advisory group dedicated to the interests of sole traders engaging via the platform. Mable also draws upon the insights and experience of the HomeMade Customer Advisory Group (CAG) to represent the views of older people using the Mable platform.

Ros discovered Mable through a friend and quickly connected with her first clients. Over time, she has built a stable base of long-term support relationships. She has worked with a wide range of clients and particularly enjoys supporting aged care clients and NDIS participants from all walks of life. Gaining insight into the experiences of people who are frail or living with disability — and seeing the world through their eyes — has been both humbling and invaluable.
In addition to support work, Ros is a dietitian and provides services to private and NDIS clients through her own practice as well as via providers. She enjoys the balance, variety, and flexibility this combination of roles offers.
Ros looks forward to contributing to the Sole Trader Advisory Council and working collaboratively with other members to help Mable strengthen its relationship with sole traders during a particularly challenging time for the sector.
Before joining Mable, Tania spent twenty years as the Founding Director of a grassroots charity in Cambodia, leading strategy, operations and community-led initiatives from the ground up. Mable’s commitment to choice, control and flexibility drew her to the platform, and she values its leadership in creating councils that listen to and amplify the voices of support workers and clients alike. Throughout her career, Tania has seen – and helped shape – how authentic community engagement fosters meaningful connection and lasting positive change.
Tania was honoured as a Member of the Order of Australia (AM) for her service to street children and their families, supporting them through some of life’s most challenging chapters, including disability, trauma and major life transitions. She also brings deep personal experience with dementia, end-of-life care and psychosocial challenges. She understands how practical, compassionate, individual-led support can restore confidence, dignity, independence and peace of mind.
Tania is happiest bringing smiles to faces, calm to chaotic places and creative solutions to everyday bumps in the road. Whether it is changing a lightbulb, brightening a room or helping someone rediscover their spark, her goal is simple: to help people and places not only function better, but feel better too.
The gratification that I have from mentoring many support workers in my leadership roles has definitely carried over into my work through Mable. I like that working through the Mable platform allows each user to traverse their own path, have freedom of choice, choose likeminded people and have the added bonus of continuity of care. I am honoured to have been given the opportunity to be a member on the Sole Trader Advisory Council and hope to keep sharing and gaining knowledge along the way.
Graeme is passionate about empowering clients to optimise their wellbeing and independence through personalised care.
His work on Mable’s Advisory Council and his experience in public health policy change reflect his commitment to ensuring a safe, positive experience for all Mable users.
Historically, Paul has served The British Cardiac Patients Association as Vice Chairman to ensure the patient and carer voice was considered when governments and health networks needed to implement change. Paul has supported the design and delivery of National Service Frameworks (NSFs), the first relating to Cardiac Care and later other chronic diseases such as diabetes and cancer. These NSFs set national standards, identified key interventions, and established agreed time scales for implementation.
Paul’s interest in healthcare stems from his lived experience with Ray, his Dad, who suffered from coronary heart disease and was the first patient in the UK to benefit from an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator and also his sister Kay, who died suddenly aged 34 after being undiagnosed with pulmonary hypertension.
In addition, Paul is an advocate for his sister-in-law with cerebral palsy and also for his stepfather Peter in the UK, who is receiving specialist dementia care.
More recently, Paul has been working on Mable with NDIS recipients, accruing more than 1,000 hours of support in the past year.
