Despite the upheaval and uncertainty this year has brought, I feel very blessed in many ways. I haven’t just met new people, I’ve formed a deep connection with many of them. Upon meeting Kamilaroi man and Deadly Science founder, Corey Tutt, I was immediately uplifted by his strong, clear sense of purpose. His mission and genuine desire is to enhance the lives of young Aboriginal children. When I think of the future through the lens of this young leader’s essential, all-inclusive, powerful and compassionate work, I feel great hope and excitement.

Education is freedom and science is hope. That’s the core philosophy behind Deadly Science, an outreach initiative that provides science books and resources to remote schools and communities across Australia.

And the person behind the initiative is Corey Tutt – a 28-year-old Kamilaroi man, who was named 2020 NSW Young Australian of the Year.
