MEDIA RELEASE

Congratulations to Andrew Bokor PS and Salvatore Pane from Ashfield-Leichhardt SES Unit for being awarded National Medals at the recent NSW SES Metro Zone Awards for 2025.

I was saddened to hear of the recent passing of Ms Gladys Barnes.

Congratulations to the Welfare Rights Centre for delivering a series of free Community Training events for Community Workers who support First Nations clients.

I encourage everyone to get down to Dress for Success on 4 and 5 July at Marrickville Town Hall to take advantage of their Fashion Frenzy!

I was saddened to hear of the recent passing of Dr Peter Bokor, a much‑loved local Marrickville doctor

The recent passing of Ms Gail Livvos is a monumental loss for the Marrickville High School community.

The 2025 budget of the New South Wales Minns Labor Government is good news for the inner west community. The budget reflects the priorities and values of our community. Our community believes in fairness and investment in quality, reliable public services. Our community knows the importance of strong public health, world-class public schools, safe active and public transport, action on climate change, and accessible and inclusive spaces. The budget shows what good Labor governments can achieve when they listen to and act in the interests of the people whom they seek to represent.

I thank the Australian Red Cross Lifeblood, which has changed blood and plasma donation rules to allow more sexually active gay and bisexual men to donate.

I recently had the pleasure of attending the annual Inner West SES Volunteer Recognition Night.
