Voices of Berowra is proud of launch a new movement together with local residents of the federal electorate of Berowra. The movement, an inaugural Listening Survey, connects kids from across communities while encouraging everyone to lend a hand dropping survey flyers into letterboxes.
Inspired by a previous model, established in the seat of Indi, the Survey hopes to deliver meaningful political representation for our communities. Additionally, if replicated successfully, will cover several seats in Australia and encourage community backed independents amidst a growing federal cross-bench.
The groups spokesperson, David Richey-Lowe stated, “We believe that the undue influence of political donors, vested interest and lobby groups no longer make it possible for major parties to represent or act in the best interests of our communities or of future generations, and our young people have the most at stake.”
Young people in particular, such as Addi and Aiden are taking all the program has to offer, earning themselves the reputation of ‘letterbox Legends.’ Together, they cover cast areas of neighbourhood delivering the survey flyer to as many locals as possible.
Young and young at heart are encouraged to have they say and give feedback. The survey, available also through QR code, is for Berowra residents who seek to raise awareness to issues that deserve a spotlight. It hopes to establish the issues that really matter for the people of Berowra.
