Andrew Henley

Candidate for Evelyn

This is an image of Andrew, who smiles brightly at the camera in front of a blurred bushland environment. He has a shaved head, and a short, salt and pepper beard. He wears a white collared shirt with dark buttons.


I’m a Mooroolbark resident of 14 years, a local dad, and a healthcare worker who has seen the true impact of underfunded systems on families and frontline staff alike. Like so many families in Evelyn, I want to see our community grow in a way that gives current and future generations the support they need to thrive.

Evelyn is changing fast, but essential services aren’t keeping up. Families are struggling to access childcare, healthcare, education and reliable transport, while climate impacts place growing pressure on our local emergency services such as the CFA and SES. Ensuring these organisations are adequately resourced must be part of our response to community safety.

I believe the root of many of these problems is politics captured by big money rather than community needs. Integrity in government is the foundation for better healthcare, stronger schools, climate action and safer communities.

I’m running to provide honest leadership based on evidence, listening to locals, and fighting for the services and protections Evelyn deserves.
