I dropped into High Wycombe Library to recycle my batteries last week. Forrestfield and Kenwick Libraries have battery recycling too. For tips, visit www.wastesorted.wa.gov.au/be-a-great-sort/take

19.01.2022 Again this year I was invited to be a judge for the Darling Range Learning Community Citizenship Project. It's never an easy task with so many fabulous projects put forward by our Year 6 students! Last night was the Award Ceremony to acknowledge the winners for 2020.

19.01.2022 Funded by the State Government and delivered by Communicare, Breathing Space provides a residential service for men who have been violent in family relationships but want to change their ways. Breathing Space provides an opportunity for men to take responsibility for their use of violence and abuse. The program makes the perpetrators of domestic violence accountable for their behaviour and provides the support they need to change. This is good for men who want to change and ...for the people in their lives. #16DaysInWA

18.01.2022 An important message from Premier Mark McGowan on the Mineralogy State Agreement and Clive Palmer.
18.01.2022 The McGowan Labor Government is serious about stopping family and domestic violence. That’s why we changed the Residential Tenancies Act 1987 to better meet the needs of tenants experiencing family and domestic violence. Victims can now choose to stay or leave their tenancies and if desired, make their rental homes safer with timely access to lock changes and other security upgrades. It’s practical changes like these that help survivors of family and domestic violence to f...eel safer and more supported. #16DaysInWA

07.01.2022 The McGowan Labor Government is delivering on our commitment to establish two 'one-stop hubs' to make it easier for victims of family and domestic violence to access services. These one-stop hubs will provide a specialist service for women and families experiencing family and domestic violence. They will bring support services together and wrap them around those who need them using a 'one-stop' approach. This model, which is new to WA, will make it easier for women and childr...en impacted by family and domestic violence to get help sooner in a safe space within their own community. #16DaysInWA
05.01.2022 Great morning out doorknocking with Peter Tinley AM talking about the McGowan Governments Recovery Plan for WA. Thanks to everyone that took the time to chat with us.
05.01.2022 COVID-19 update for Wednesday 12 August.
05.01.2022 We’re investing $9.6 billion through the State Budget to strengthen WA’s health system, ensuring Western Australians have access to world class healthcare. This includes a record $306 million in additional funding towards mental health services across our state. Our budget keeps our health system strong to protect the health of our community, while we continue our world-leading response to the threat of COVID-19.
04.01.2022 Established in 2017, the McGowan Government’s RSPCA Pets in Crisis Program helps women and children fleeing domestic violence, by temporarily fostering out their pets while they get back on their feet. We know that some women stay in violent relationships because they can't take their pets with them and fear they'll be hurt or killed. By providing temporary foster care for their pets, we’re providing practical help to support them on their path out of violent relationships. #16DaysInWA

04.01.2022 Important update from the Premier on WA's hard border
04.01.2022 On Remembrance Day, we come together as a community to reflect on the service and sacrifice of those who gave their lives to defend our freedoms. We observe one minute’s silence on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month each year to honour those who lived and died during WWI and in other wars and conflicts involving Australia’s armed services. The Kalamunda RSL will be holding a Remembrance Day service at the Kalamunda War Memorial from 10.45am.... I encourage members of our community to show their respect for those who have served in the Australian defence forces by observing one minute’s silence.
03.01.2022 Family and domestic violence is an awful reality for too many women and children in WA. It can have serious and ongoing impacts on their health, including physical injuries, poor mental health, reproductive health problems, harm from alcohol or other drugs and - in the most tragic cases - death. That’s why we’re building two new women’s refuges in Perth - in Peel and Kwinana - providing vital specialist services for women and children escaping violence.... #16DaysInWA
