Are you, or do you know someone who lives with a disability?

Did you know that the Queenslanders with Disability Network host a monthly peer support group called 'Power of Peers' at the #SpringfieldCentral Library?

Power of Peers aims to provide:

❤️ Safe space to share lived experiences
💜 Chance to connect with others in your local community
💛 Platform to voice your opinion on important issues such as housing, transport, education, employment, and human rights
🧡 Build friendships and support networks

The next meeting will take place on Tuesday 7 April, from 10am - 12pm.

Share the word and tag or send this to anyone who might be interested 😊

A great catch up with Patrick from Karakan to discuss the work they are doing through their Federal Government funded Multicultural Youth Support Navigator Service.

There are a number of youth support services in our #Ipswich & #Logan communities but they’re not always easy to access or find.

It’s terrific to see the outreach that Karakan is doing to help make those connections and improve the lives of so many young people and their families.

Thank you to the Gold Coast Islamic Society - GC Mosque for welcoming us for a wonderful community Iftar dinner this evening.

It was lovely for Meaghan Scanlon MP and I to share a meal with so many friends from our multicultural communities on the Gold Coast during this holy month of Ramadan.

Add in the Amazon warehouse, that will add on another few hundred trucks and vans to our already overly congested roads. Also, I noticed new beith road wasn't mentioned 🤣 in enjoy my car skipping along all the pot holes on top of potholes on a daily basis, and then having to dodge other cars, trucks and buses that veer into oncoming traffic to avoid said potholes 🤔

Hi Charis Mullen MP , is it a state responsibility in regards to cyclists on the centenary highway? Id love to see them not riding on 100k/h roads

How about stop approving more developments and adding to the traffic until the infrastructure is in place. Surely developers should be made to contribute to infrastructure upgrades in order to have their projects approved. They take off with the profits and the rate payers end up paying for the infrastructure that should have been in place prior to development. Failure of both local and state government giving development approvals before its reticfied.

Need to do School Rd Redbank Plains

Would you like to be part of a dementia-friendly community?

I was so excited to meet with Nadia from Dementia Australia today to begin working on an action plan for how we become a more dementia-friendly community here in #jordan.

Having cared for someone with dementia, I feel so passionate about ensuring that we provide an inclusive, respectful and supportive environment for everyone, including for those in our community living with dementia, their families and carers.

Small actions make a big difference - so please reach out if you are keen to get involved in our work.

Im definitely interested!

This evening I was invited to a special ceremony at the Brisbane Synagogue to remember the incredible Roelofina Wisse-Borger (Fiena). 💙

During WWII, Fiena & her family harboured three Jewish families, 10 people in total, who were hiding to escape the murderous persecution of the Nazi regime sweeping through the Netherlands.

For her immense courage and service, she has been (posthumously) honoured as “Righteous Among The Nations” - an incredible honour bestowed on those who risked their lives to save the Jewish people.

Fiena chose compassion, courage and humanity at a time when such choices carried the gravest of risks.
