My name is Lachlan Hyde and I am running to be your representative on Fairfield City Council as a councillor at the December 4th Election.
I've spent most of my life here in South-West Sydney and I genuinely believe our best asset is our people. That is at the centre of why I'm running, to invest in our community for our future.
With a background in the youth, community, and not-for-profit sectors, I intend to place a greater emphasis on Fairfield's Parks and Waterways, our City's Young People, boosting local Mental and Physical Health Services, and improving the mobility of residents. While Fairfield is a great community, things can be better.
Having served as a youth health advisor to the South Western Sydney Local Health District and previously as a youth advisor to Fairfield City Council, I have seen first-hand the issues of poor quality green space, lack of mental health support, and the undervaluing of the City's youth.
Despite never previously holding any political aspirations, seeing these shortcomings motivated me to put my hand up and stand for election. As our City recovers both economically and socially from the COVID-19 lockdown I felt that now more than ever Fairfield City Council needs regular and ordinary people at the helm.
Should I have the privilege to serve the community I will use my skills and experience to deliver for Fairfield City from Day One.
In embarking on this campaign, I humbly ask your support to achieve better things for all us by supporting my campaign to become YOUR representative on Fairfield City Council at the December 4th election.
