About Honoured Gym
Why We Exist
When you walk into Honoured Social Enterprise Gym its Redlands best community gym and boutique fitness for all. You can feel this isn’t just a gym. It’s a place where every person is seen, valued, and included. It’s a place where barriers fall away and potential rises. From teen sports and agility, mum and dad sessions. We love NDIS active PT and community sessions & Private Health Rebates. At the centre of this community gym and fitness is Natalie a mum of seven, a long-term foster carer, a woman with Autism and ADHD, and a relentless believer in the worth of every individual.
Natalie’s life has been shaped by love and grit. For years, she was the voice on the other end of the line at Kids Helpline, guiding young people through their darkest moments. She opened her home and her heart along with her husband to children who needed safety, stability, and someone to believe in them. She knows what it’s like to face systems that don’t always see your value, and she’s determined to change that for others.
‘Young people need a strong and authentic role models in their life, people they can connect with and feel safe to be themselves around. Social media has its place for some things, but it cannot replace human connection and interactions.’
Her vision for Honoured was never about treadmills and dumbbells. It was about creating a safe haven where fitness becomes a way to ease anxiety, build confidence, and open doors to opportunity. It’s about showing a teenager who’s been struggling to fit the box of the schooling system that they are capable, worthy, and full of potential. It’s about giving someone who’s been told they “Can’t” a place where they absolutely can.
Natalie’s own story began in England, where her parents couldn’t afford gym memberships or equipment. She still remembers lifting cans of food in place of weights, not realising then that those moments would one day shape her mission to make fitness accessible to everyone, regardless of background or income.
Through programs like Concrete for boys and HonourHER for girls, Natalie blends strength training with life lessons, values, and mentorship. She’s helping young people gain qualifications like Certificate III and IV in Fitness, opening pathways to further education and employment. Every milestone whether it’s a personal best in the gym, a certificate earned, the spark of self-belief or friendships formed, is celebrated here.
Honoured’s sister charity, Infinitely Valued, extends that vision, championing the worth of every person and empowering people with disabilities through employment, leadership, and community connection. Natalie’s ties to the Down Syndrome and Autism communities run deep, not as an outsider, but as someone who understands from lived experience.
What makes Honoured different is that it’s built on more than business plans and fitness programs. It’s built on love, hope, and an unshakable belief that change is possible. Natalie and her team aren’t creating stronger bodies they are nurturing stronger hearts, minds, and futures.
“Honoured was born from my own journey as a mum, a Kids Helpline counsellor, a carer and a woman with Autism and ADHD. It’s more than a gym, it’s a community where every person, no matter their background or ability, belongs. We exist to break down barriers to health, strength, and opportunity, so that young people, carers, and families can discover just how powerful they truly are.”
