When I was elected as Mayor of Willoughby Council in December 2021, community matters were at the heart of my campaign and remain my inspiration and drive to make Willoughby fun, inclusive and sustainable. My goal was to connect and listen to as many people in our community as possible. I have devoted my time and energy as Mayor driving and delivering many projects forward as requested by the community. I am committed to continuing to create a renewed, diverse, connected, sustainable and thriving Willoughby. Because community matters. That’s why I’m asking you to help fuel my campaign to represent you on Council.

Political Donation Restrictions The NSW Government sets out several prohibitions about who can donate to a campaign. If you belong to any of the following groups below, you CANNOT donate to a campaign: ​ a. a property developer (including anyone becoming a property developer within 12 months) ​ b. a tobacco industry business entity ​ c. a liquor or gambling industry business entity ​ d. a close associate of (a), (b) or (c) ​ e. any industry representative organisation if the majority of its members are those listed in (a), (b) or (c) * If you make a political donation to a New South Wales political party, candidate or other political participant in NSW, you may have a legal duty to report the donation to the New South Wales Electoral Commission. A reportable political donation is a single donation of $1,000 or more or multiple small donations made to the same recipient in a financial year that, when added together, total $1,000 or more. Political donors must disclose any reportable political donations they make. Political donors that make reportable political donations are called major political donors and they must disclose to the NSW Electoral Commission annually after the end of the financial year. It is the responsibility of each major political donor to disclose by the annual deadline.
