Russell Weston

Candidate for Randwick Council - South Ward

Hi I am Russell Weston and I want to be your South Ward councillor on Randwick council. I am a very proud Yorta Yorta man from a region between the Goulburn and Murray rivers. Now I live on Bidjigal and Gadigal country with my partner and foster children.

I have always worked on grassroots community issues and I was the first Aboriginal man elected to the InterPride board. On council I will put the community first and be the first Aboriginal man on Randwick Council! On council I will advocate for:
- First Nations community and culture.
- LGBTQIA+ rights.
- Public Housing, including issues of disrepair and overcrowding.
- The community and their needs, including public housing, frontline domestic violence service, fixing the buses, Youth Centres and affordable access to sports facilities.
- Protection of the Environment - including La Perouse Kamay National Park and Yarra Bay. And, explore opportunities in South Ward for making our town centres vibrant and green.
