The Carey Medal Committee is thrilled to announce that Toni Joel OAM (1982) is the recipient of the 2024 Carey Medal. Toni is the founder of the Off Your Back winter coat drive, a charitable initiative dedicated to providing warm clothing to people experiencing homelessness and hardship across Victoria.

The Carey Medal represents an important commitment to community service by recognising people in our community making positive change. Toni’s efforts have seen Off Your Back grow into a vital movement, collecting and distributing over 300,000 coats since its inception.

We look forward to sharing more of Toni's story and the Off Your Back initiative in our first issue of Torch 2025.
