Shaun Stanford

Family business, we look after people's dogs. I regularly feed, walk, clean, and train them, as well as follow instructions and deal with owners.

I'm a national-level cross-country runner, placing 8th in this year's state championships in my age group, qualifying me for the School Sport ACT XC Nationals. I've also run numerous marathons, my first at the age of 15 in 3:55, and countless fun runs and charity events.

From 2019-2023, I was a Boy Scout. During that time, I would work at countless Bunnings sausage sizzles, clean up rubbish on public holidays, and organize and contribute to community charities. Since leaving, I've used my skills to serve, raising money through running, where possible. Also, earlier this year, through my school's immersion program, I and a small group of boys went to Cambodia for 2 weeks, where we taught disadvantaged children and firsthand saw the effects of poverty.
