EVER - EMERALD VILLAGE EXERCISE AND RECREATION, FOUNDER
EVER is a community driven group to effect changes in our beautiful town of Emerald. This is a group of like minded community members to help drive action and be a voice to Cardinia Council about what we'd love to see in our community moving forward.
I started a grass roots movement in the midst of COVID, after the realisation that our community didn't haven enough recreation in our 5km radius.
I created a social media community in September 2020 that communicated and initiated council/government action and awareness.
May 2022 : EVER was awarded 1 Million dollars for the design and implementation of a skatepark in Emerald by the Victorian Government. This is a direct result of my networking with government, residents, children and council. Design has already commenced and the park will be built in 2023/24 at the Worrell Reserve in the heart of Emerald!
I continue working towards recreation goals in my local community by working with council, state and local government, residents, and key business management.
