I am Helen Clotworthy. I have lived in Pokeno for 48 years, and like many of you, I care deeply about the future of our Community.

I'm honoured to be involved in projects such as the Pokeno Recreation Park, the Pokeno Community Hub, and the Pokeno Community Trust. These are important community assets, and I'd like to continue helping bring them to life.

All of us who serve on the committee are volunteers doing our best for Pokeno. Tonight is a chance for our community - especially those who may not always speak up - to support what were building together.
