Hi, I'm Gavan
I am a Mount Alexander local and a long term social activist with 45 years experience in progressive and community advocacy.
I have campaigned for suicide prevention, mental health promotion and services for young people. These experiences have shown me the importance of public services in supporting our community and the power of collective action in creating change.
Mount Alexander residents want action on the climate crisis and to make a more equal and just society. So many people in our community are struggling with the cost of living and housing crises. We need a progressive council to act on the big issues that we’re facing and reflect the progressive values of this community.
I will advocate for protecting our local biodiversity, supporting council-run local services which are lifelines for so many, community transport and safe streets for all to enjoy. I will also advocate for acting on the crisis of men’s violence against women and justice for First Nations people.
Together, let’s create a welcoming and liveable Mount Alexander community.
Your vote is powerful.
