🏡💛 CAN YOU HELP A LOCAL FAMILY ? 💛🏡
Earlier this month 4 generations of the Lowe family lost their Riverhills home in a devastating fire. Since then, the generosity and kindness of this community has provided them with much of the essentials to help them get back on their feet. They’ve settled into a temporary home in 4074, but still need a few final items to help them settle in. Can you help? 🙋♀️The family still need…
🛏️2 x Queen Beds (one with a mattress) and
🧊1 x Fridge (modest size)
🛍️ Linen (quilts,sheets,covers in various sizes)
These items would need to be ready and able to delivered directly to the family as they don’t have transport. 🛻 A huge thank you the community who has donated clothing, essentials, or provided messages that have helped carry them through an unimaginably tough time. However, a very BIG thank you to Dave and the crew from Riverlife Baptist Church who’ve been doing the deliveries with care and compassion, and to Paul and Jeff from Storage Choice Sumner for providing the utes to make it all happen. You’ve been absolute champions. 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 If you can donate one of these items or help us find them, please contact my office directly on 0737372120 or [email protected]
Let’s keep this incredible show of community spirit going. 💪🏼Every little bit helps. ... See MoreSee Less

We live in the greatest multicultural country in the world but that doesn't happen by accident! 🌏Community leaders like Dr Jayawardene from the Sri Lankan Buddhist community play an integral role in ensuring that our multicultural groups can share their stories with the broader community and promote a deeper understanding of their culture . ...

It's been 50 years since the fall of Saigon, a time of sorrow for our Vietnamese community in Queensland. It was an honour to join with Margie Nightingale MP to commemorate the service of the Vietnamese Armed forces and honour their sacrifice. It's inspiring to see the Vietnamese community come together to recognise their service, and I want to thank the wonderful organising committee for pulling together such a moving tribute. ...

My two big kids absolutely love rock climbing at Urban Climb — and to prove I'm a "cool mum," I give it a go too! I'm still not very good, but that's not the point—it's about showing my kids that I'm willing to try something new, even if I’ll never master it.
Rock climbing is just one of many solo sports — like Scouts — that accept FairPlay/PlayOn! vouchers. The next round opens in early August, so make sure you explore all your options! ... See MoreSee Less

👍🏼👎🏼The Electoral Commission of Queensland is about to undertake a redistribution. Every 7 years ECQ conducts a review into the boundaries of all 93 electorates to ensure have the same number of constituents and are reflective of the communities they serve. 🗺️ Often this means areas are added, taken away or even names of electorates are changed. I'm putting together my submission and would love to know your thoughts? 🧠 Do you think the name of Mount Ommaney should stay the same, or should the name change to something that reflects the entire electorate? ❓Let me know below, and feel free to share some suggestions ! ...
