I was honoured to speak at Burwood Council’s International Women’s Day event this morning, in the presence of so many inspirational women, young and old, from our community.

Today we celebrate the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women while also calling for more to be done.

I’m blessed to have two brilliant daughters and an incredible wife, and I couldn’t be more proud of the three of them.

Let’s celebrate the achievements of our mothers, sisters and daughters. Let’s challenge bias and continue to campaign against all violence towards women.

Today we also held a charity BBQ to raise money for Women and Girls’ Emergency Centre, who have a local residence helping women and children in times of need. If you’d like to donate or get in touch to help, please visit their site: https://www.wagec.org.au
