Clr Larry Whipper today announced Alex McCaffrey as the 4th member of his Community Action Team. “At 34 years of age, Alex brings energy, enthusiasm and commitment to the already impressive mix of talents on the team.”
Alex has lived in the Southern Highlands for many years and is a resident of the family orientated area of East Bowral. She is the proud mother of 3 young children aged, 6, 8 and 10 years. Her eldest son attends Tudor House, and Alex’s two younger children attend Bowral Public.
Alex graduated in 1997 with a Bachelor of Arts with a major in Legal Studies. She has also worked in the areas of social justice and community rehabilitation assisting people to reintegrate back into the community. Alex is now employed in the welfare sector and is currently employed at Community Links Wollondilly as a Brighter Futures Caseworker – working with families who have children aged 0 – 8. Alex also works at the Southern Highlands Youth Accommodation Service in Bowral, as a Youth Worker.
“I am impressed by Alex’s’ political insights and community sincerity”, Larry said “Her involvement within the Wingecarribee shire, including membership of the Bowral Public Parents and Citizens Committee, the Parents and Friends Committee at Tudor House and her connection with the Mittagong Soccer Club and the Southern Highland Hawks AFL give an indication of the community insights and understanding that she can bring to the table at Council”.
“Alex’s’ passion for the Southern Highlands, particularly her desire to maintain a social, psychological and healthy lifestyle for families and to protect open spaces and provide a safe environment for children to live and play, fits the Community Action ethos perfectly. Her strong desire to advocate for the needs of women and for providing opportunities to youth, also reinforces the core values of of our policies and what I believe to be the will of the people of the Shire as well”! Larry said.
