Welcome to the Trevor Barker FOUNDATION.

Trevor Barker was an inspiring player for St. Kilda Football Club for over 14 seasons. He was St. Kilda's Best & Fairest player twice and represented his State seven times.

Following a successful VFL/AFL career, Trevor went on to coach VFA team Sandringham to two premierships and then onto coach the St. Kilda reserves in two finals.

He always provided hope, gave strength and offered inspiration to so many people in need. Sadly, Trevor passed away from cancer in April 1996. He always positive, with a great sense of humour and provided hope, gave strength and offered inspiration to so many.

In September of the same year, the Trevor Barker Foundation was established to continue the memory and inspirational work of a remarkable man.

'Trevor was always there for other people when they needed him. Two weeks before he died, he got a call about a young boy who was feeling suicidal. Trevor made time to go and give him a reason to keep on living. Trevor never gave up on himself and he never gave up on anyone else.'
