Theresa Slater

Candidate for Greater Geelong City Council - You Yangs Ward

Hi, I'm theresa. 

I’m a queer mother of two children and I’m a born and bred Geelong local. 

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 the council. I am deeply engaged in the community, participating in local events for lgtbqia+ community and other local matters. 

I have experience working with vulnerable children and families and I manage complex situations with compassion and composure. I will bring my problem solving and facilitation skills to every conversation in our community and on council, to make change happen. 

As your councillor, I will fight to tackle the cost of living crisis, Lead local climate action, for genuinely affordable housing and for multiculturalism and cultural solidarity
