Sian Milton-McGurk

Candidate for Greater Geelong - Charlemont Ward

hi, i'm sian.

I am a young and passionate local community member, with a vision to transform our area into a safe, greens and people focused community. 

I currently work for a federal government agency as an assistant director of work health and safety. I love my work and I am deeply passionate about fighting for and upholding workers rights. 

Charlemont is at risk of being left behind in the decision-making process, and I want to ensure that all members of our diverse community have an opportunity to have their voices heard.

The community has many young families and young households, many people who have recently purchased their first home or are renting. These are some of the people that have been hit hardest by the cost-of-living crisis, abandoned by the major parties and deserving of a representative who will fight for them. 

In Charlemont ward, there is a distinct lack of infrastructure, including bus routes and bike paths. As your councillor, I will fight to build the infrastructure that our community needs. 

I will push to lead local climate action, support genuinely affordable housing, for more public transport for the future and safe bike riding and walking.
