Practical Strategy. Lasting Impact.

Good intentions deserve to become real. We help organisations and communities create meaningful outcomes and the capability to sustain them.

Turnstone Projects is a certified social enterprise that supports people at key moments of decision and change.

 We provide support before, during, and after key decisions:

Before: Gaining clarity and designing strategy. During: Providing structure, momentum, and support through delivery. After: Measuring impact and building capability that evolves and endures.

Our work spans agriculture and manufacturing to education, community development, investment, and philanthropy.

As a certified social enterprise, we reinvest in the communities we serve, meaning every project contributes to our social mission: creating fair and practical opportunities for people and communities.

The TURNSTONE Approach

Like the migratory shorebird we are named after, turnstones are resourceful and observant, known for their habit of uncovering hard places to reach opportunities. We do the same: investigating beyond the obvious, adapting to diverse environments, and working collaboratively to find practical solutions. With experience across remote, regional, and urban Australia and contexts crossing Asia, Africa, Europe, and North America, we bring a global perspective to place-based work.

 

Rebecca helped us achieve our funding goal. She was able to weave the town’s history and culture into the present, demonstrating the long-term need for our community. Her research was thorough and wide. It provided a clear overview of all we wanted. The speed at which she worked was impressive.

We are committed to local employment and Discovery supports this. We have used Discovery for the Gulkula Regional Training Centre recruitment and now have the skills in-house for future intakes. We were really pleased with the result and the Traditional Owners were well-equipped to make the final selection.
