About Us

Brett Hayhoe

Chief Executive Officer (CEO)

Since 2004, Brett has been the Publisher & Editor of his own LGBT+ magazine – Q Magazine – based in Melbourne, Australia. Brett has been an advocate for his community for over 35 years including 12 years on the Board of InterPride – 4 as the Region 20 Director, 4 as Secretary and 4 as Co-President. During this time, he also served as Co-Chair of the Communications and the WorldPride Committees of InterPride. His community service has seen him lead many organisations in Victoria including PLWHA (Victoria) – an advocacy organisation for people living with HIV/AIDS – and 11 years with Pride March Victoria. “I believe that if you identify as a member of a particular community then you should do whatever you’re able to work for and with said community”, Brett said. “As frustrating volunteering may be at times, the rewards well outweigh the angst, as you live with the hope that your work will make a difference in some way, shape or form”. Brett is now focussed on the political landscape and is the Chairman, President and State Council representative of his local branch.
