Ms JODIE HARRISON (Charlestown—Minister for Women, Minister for Seniors, and Minister for the Prevention of Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault)—Rosalynd O'Shannassy is a true stalwart of the Charlestown electorate community. I was honoured to name her Charlestown's 2022 local woman of the year for her support of the Westpac Rescue Helicopter service, and I am thrilled to report to the House that Rosalynd was one of more than forty individual and Landcare groups recognised at the 2024 Environmental Excellence in Landcare Awards. The awards celebrate the tireless efforts and consistent achievements of volunteers across Lake Macquarie, and Rosalynd's Whitebridge Balireh Landcare group took out a Newcomers Group Award—recognising the phenomenal progress they've made over the past twelve months. Her incredible journey of healing through her work with the Whitebridge Balireh Landcare group shows the power of nature and the value and strength of older people. Her dedication and leadership are truly an inspiration. I want to thank Rosalynd for her leadership of the Whitebridge Balireh group, and acknowledge and congratulate all those involved in the group's work.
