Change is needed this month

Wednesday, 9 October 2024

We’ve hit October and that means it’s State Election time.

Within my federal electorate, there are five State seats and we are so fortunate to have five passionate and strong LNP candidates for those seats.

I believe that Queensland needs a change in Government and I am encouraging you to think about the last decade. See you at the ballots on October 26.

On October 15, I am hosting a Royal High Tea to celebrate the official portrait of King Charles III. The event will be hosted at The Komo and I am looking forward to indulging in some scones and tea with you all. More info below. 

On October 18, my Mums and Bubs FREE Expo has been rescheduled. Originally planned for earlier in the month, however due to bad weather we had to reschedule. We hope you can still make it.

If you or your family need anything, please don’t hesitate to reach out via phone or email.

I wish you and your families a safe and blessed month of October.

I want to hear from you! Are you and your family experiencing cost of living pressures? Let me know so I can continue to tell your stories and represent you Parliament.
