Thanks to Dai Le MP for inviting me to the Fowler NDIS Forum in Fairfield today. It was great to hear from the local community, learn personal experiences and answer questions on some of the upcoming changes to the Scheme.

Yesterday we announced a further $5 million from the Federal Government to complete Stage 2 of this revitalisation, extending to the end of Lebanon Reserve. This project is improving drainage, water quality and the amenity of the creek for the local community to enjoy. 2/2

Vision Australia train these gorgeous pups to match with Aussies who are blind or have low vision, to help them live with more independence, choice and control. It's exciting to think that these adorable puppies are yet to meet their person, whose world they will change. 2/2

An extraordinary Paralympics games have come to an end - but let the celebrations continue! Australia finished ninth overall, with 18 gold, 17 silver and 28 bronze. Our Para-athletes achieved remarkable feats of strength, speed and mobility and should be incredibly proud. 1/3
