MELISSA McINTOSH FIGHTS FOR PENRITH PCYC

An elected Dutton Liberal Government will commit $20,000 for Penrith PCYC to install an LED display board for emergency notices as well as a new mural.

Federal Member for Lindsay, Melissa McIntosh, said emergency services noticeboards are crucial in times of need.

“Our community has faced multiple natural disasters in recent years, including floods and fires, which have been devastating for local families and businesses,” Mrs McIntosh said.

“Providing additional resources to respond to emergencies and disasters is a must.”

“I am proud that a Dutton Liberal Government will provide Penrith PCYC with this support.”

“I hear all the time just how successful the Penrith PCYC has been in supporting our young people.”

Penrith PCYC President, Gai Hawthorn OAM, said the local club is a great place for young people to connect in a community setting.

“A new display board will give directional signage during emergencies and will share important information about what is happening in our town,” Mrs Hawthorn said.

Penrith PCYC Manager, Tristan Summerhayes, also welcomed this announcement.

“The LED board will allow the community to connect with the great programs at their local PCYC and stay up to date during emergencies,” Mr Summerhayes said.

This commitment is part of the Liberals’ plan to get Australia back on track.
