As your Independent MP, I’ve been focused on our community, not on party politics. I’m proud to have helped deliver:
Delivered
- [/] Transformative funding for Sydney Jewish Museum ($8.5 million) and Easts Rugby ($2 million) – which are among a large number of local organisations to have received funding since the last election.
- [/] Bondi’s first ever community battery – helping power 1,000 homes with locally-made clean energy, bringing down bills by up to $200 per year.
- [/] Wentworth’s first Youth Action Committee – driving action on local initiatives on mental health and financial literacy.
- [/] A new Wentworth Faith Leaders’ Forum – to coordinate local action to promote community cohesion.
- [/] $42 million for an upgraded co-ed public high school in Randwick – giving families more choice in public education.
- [/] Support for the community following the Bondi Junction tragedy – helping our community heal and survivors rebuild their lives.
- [/] More EV chargers across our area – through federal funding and the incredible work of our local councils.
- [/] Top electorate in the country for community refugee sponsorship – following our work to promote the CRISP initiative in Wentworth.
Future Plans
I’ll continue to stand-up for your values and be your voice in Canberra – as well as delivering what you want for Wentworth. I’m focused on:
- More choice in public education – inspired by the vision for a new public high school that I’ve developed with architect Adam Swinburn.
- Better integration of mental health services – that helps deliver the care people need.
- Continued funding for Wentworth organisations – to ensure community clubs and organisations continue to thrive.
- Protect housing density and unique character in Potts Point
