Cultural Guidance Council

The Cultural Guidance Council has been established to ensure all our projects remain grounded in truth, guided by culture, and accountable to our pillars of community, culture and country. The council acknowledges that it does not speak on behalf of other mobs but provides guidance based on lived experience and cultural responsibility. We operate under the premise that a good idea is a good idea — and we should crack on doing rather than talking. This council exists to offer cultural direction, advocate for healing, and provide guidance needed to help us to continue to Dream Bigger. With deep respect for the lived experiences of our people and the strength of our cultural knowledge holders, the council stands behind our projects and gives the iSupplyAU team their blessing to carry on with the listed projects.

The Council includes:

William “Billy” Trott

Billy is a very proud Aboriginal man from the Wangatha (Goldfields of Kalgoorlie WA) and Mirning Nations (Nullabor – Great Australian Bight SA). He is a very culturally oriented man and a respected elder amongst his people. He has worked hard to rebuild strong cultural ties to his land and his people despite being removed as a young child. Billy is a survivor of the Stolen Generations and a powerful truth-teller whose lived experience underpins his leadership in the space of loss, grief, and healing. His story — of being forcibly removed, silenced, and separated from family and culture — drives his advocacy to ensure this never happens again. Billy brings raw honesty, deep compassion, and cultural resilience to every conversation.
