Izzy Scherrer

Candidate for Greater Geelong City Council - Deakin Ward

hi, i'm izzy.

I’m a Geelong local, experienced community advocate and dedicated volunteer. 

Our local area deserves a representative who will listen to them, rather than corporations and property developers. I will be an approachable representative, who is accessible, ready to listen and take local concerns to council.

I’ve spent my career working for people and I’ve seen the impact of policies that neglect our community's needs, and I believe we deserve better.  In the not for profit sector, I’ve worked on public health programs and honed my skills in bringing people together around shared goals.

I’m deeply involved in the community, organising local events, volunteering for environmental causes, and supporting local arts, culture and public events. These roles have given me a strong understanding of our community’s needs and the drive to be an effective councillor who listens, leads, and delivers real results. 

As your councillor, I will fight to lead local climate action, for safe bike riding and walking, to build a thriving local community and grow active, green neighbourhoods
