Hey Reader,

I'm hosting another People’s Bench (Djilba Edition).
This is a chance for you to share ideas, raise concerns, and have a conversation directly with me 😊.

📍 Bruce Lee Reserve, Beaconsfield​
📅 Sunday 16 August​
⏰ 8am – 12pm

This is a free community event and open to everyone. No bookings are required, just come along, enjoy the vibes and join the convo.

I'm looking forward to seeing you there.

😍 Life Update

The past few months have brought one of the biggest changes of my life, becoming a mum to now 3 month old Aaliyah.

Motherhood has been an incredibly special experience, and it has also given me a new perspective on the challenges many families face every day. From the cost of living pressures to the struggle many parents experience balancing work, family, and caring responsibilities, these issues are more personal than ever.

While I’ve been taking time to adjust to this new chapter, I remain committed to listening to our community and fighting for the issues that matter to you. I'm now 'back on deck' attending community events and seeing some of the excellent work some West Aussies are doing in the local communities for instance, I met with Jacaranda Community Services last month.

They do incredible work in the Belmont area helping people going through financial hardship. I donated some cash to them last week but they are always grateful for any money people can spare to support the service.

​
I’m excited for everything in the months ahead, and can't wait to see you at the People's Bench 😁.

​Kind Regards,
Fatima Payman
