BRADDON

Vote [ 1 ] VANESSA BLEYER

Hi, I’m Vanessa Bleyer – your Greens Candidate for Braddon

I’m a seasoned environmental lawyer and passionate advocate dedicated to protecting Tasmania’s unique natural environment.


I live in beautiful Stanley, and I’m passionate about Braddon and protecting what makes it special.


With over 20 years of experience, I’ve spent my career fighting for better outcomes for both the community and the ecosystem. I run my own law practice, with offices in Launceston and Melbourne, specialising in environmental, migration, wills, and commercial law.


My commitment to environmental protection began at age 10, when I wrote a poem about the endangered Tasmanian wedge-tailed eagle. Since then, I’ve been driven by the goal of improving society through law and politics. I moved to Tasmania in 2010 to help stop the proposed Tamar Valley pulp mill and have been fully dedicated to Tasmanian campaigns ever since.


Through my law practice, I’ve advocated for the protection of Robbins Island and Takayna / Tarkine. I’m ready to move my deep expertise and passion for change from the courtroom to the Parliament – fighting for the future of Tasmania’s environment and its communities.


I’m a seasoned campaigner, and I’ve been our Senate candidate in the last two Federal Elections.


This election, we can stop the stadium, invest in health and housing, and protect our environment.


All this is possible.
Vote Greens.

[ 5 ] Susanne Ward

Hi, I'm Susanne – a small business operator and housing advocate from Devonport.

Managing a caravan park has given me insight into how the housing crisis is affecting Tasmanians. I’m standing with the Greens because we need more homes, not handouts to big developers and sports executives.
