Ms JODIE HARRISON (Charlestown—Minister for Women, Minister for Seniors, and Minister for the Prevention of Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault)—My thanks to all those in the Charlestown electorate who donated to the Friends with Dignity April Pyjama Drive! I am always blown away by the generosity of the Charlestown electorate community, and these donations will go to children in homeless and domestic violence shelters to help them stay warm over the winter months. My particular thanks to the Tutton family. Dad Nathan and two of his children, Imogen and Isla, dropped off a bag full of children's pyjamas for the drive. Included with each of the pyjamas were hand drawn cards from Imogen, Isla and their sister Thea—each card sent warm wishes to the child who would end up receiving the pyjamas. It was a beautiful thing to see, and when I called Nathan to share my appreciation he said it was all due to the organising abilities of his wife, Tracey. So once again, a big thank you to Tracey, Nathan, Imogen, Isla and Thea. Thank you again to all those who donated.
