We are Proudly Port Phillip and We Proudly Support Pride.

I was joined by Cr Libby Buckingham (Balaclava), Cr Justin Halliday (Alma) and Cr Beti Jay (South Melbourne) in representing the City of Port Phillip during Pride March.

My opening speech for Pride March reiterated that in the City of Port Phillip we welcome everyone, Port Phillip is your home for belonging and being part of community.

Following Pride March I was interviewed by JOY 94.9 discussing the importance of Pride March in bringing communities together by celebrating diversity.

I also joined the celebrations at Victorian Pride Centre – Happy Pride!
