Why True Radius?
The name came from observation.
Decisions, policies, rules, hopes - so frequently afterthoughts, dropped into rural communities, often by people who thought they'd reached the heart of the matter.
​
But the true centre of a community isn't always where a meeting was held or who was in the discussion. Further out is where the ripples land. That's where the impact is felt - sometimes deeply, and often long after the changemakers have gone.
​
True Radius speaks to that idea: starting from a place of truth, of listening first, and recognising how real change moves. Sometimes slowly. Sometimes powerfully. But always further than expected.
True Radius: Rural Engagement That Works
How often do we see rural engagement talking at communities - not with them?
A stall at a field day.
A community hall briefing on decisions already made.
A glossy brochure full of stock photos and empty promises.
It's called “engagement,” but too often, it’s just noise.
​
True Radius changes that.
Founded by someone who’s worked in and lived the rural reality. We’re a rural engagement business that believes in substance, not spin. To us it's about building trust through real conversations - not assumptions, forms and cultivated bling.
​Our approach is simple:
Start with people, not the message.
Design for the paddock, not the pamphlet.
Work to fit rural realities, not urban timelines.
Why we're different:
​
​
Stories that connect - not reports that collect dust
​
Deep listening, before polished presentations
​
Local knowledge respected as hard-earned experience
​
Accountability that actually closes the loop
We work with those serious about rural engagement – from government agencies and councils to catchment groups, industry bodies, and community organizations.
Across projects spanning infrastructure and policy development to community planning and weaving diverse perspectives.
Our clients? They're ready to move beyond tired field days and one-way dialogue.
​
The result?
Engagement rural communities champion - not resist.
Solutions that stick.
Relationships that outlast projects.
