A great meeting with Linda Seymour and Wilma Stevens
On Tuesday 21 December, Gary had a terrific meeting with Linda Seymour, who is running as an Independent in the seat of Hughes. Also at the meeting was Wilma Stevens, who has great experience and insight into disability services and social enterprises in Australia.
Covered in the discussion was disability employment, inclusion, the platform and how Linda could support and further connect to the platform. They had some great ideas in terms of pursuing funding.
This was part of Gary’s current work connecting with politicians in the lead-up to the next federal election. He is quite comfortable having those discussions with candidates, and we are quite comfortable leaving that task to him. Disability doesn’t care what politics individuals have, neither do we. We’re happy chatting to anybody who has a contribution to make in terms of ideas, funding or connections. Â
