#matessavingmates Inc.

by | Sep 5, 2023 | , ,

By Mel Tiver. #matessavingmates Inc. is a not for profit group which was started after a founding member lost her husband to drink driving last year. This started a manic desire to try and prevent drink driving from shattering the lives of other families and small communities. We sought the sound advice from a friend with extensive business experience and managed to entice her to join the crew. We then went ahead and created a group that can do what we want it to do, be all about community, education and maybe even save a life. Through fundraising including a social knockout bowls night which will be held annually in Padthaway and generous donations from businesses and corporations we were able to purchase a Toyota Hiace 12 seater bus for people to hire. We now have our bus ready for hire and being a smaller bus, we’re hoping people will […]

By Nasik Swami. A former Naracoorte mayor has called on the public to question the motives of anyone seeking division in the country. The call from Ken Grundy follows the Commonwealth Government’s referendum, which will create an Indigenous Voice through a change in the constitution. Mr Grundy said the public had every right to contact its elected members of parliament to voice their concerns about the proposed changes. “Therefore, we are all recognised, and to grant an extra avenue for any group to influence the representatives will cause division. “It will set a precedent for other groups to also have a Voice. Where would it stop? We should question the motives of anyone seeking such division.” Mr Grundy said the Australian Prime Minister was determined to have the Voice included in the Constitution. “Indigenous support gained through several hundred committees stands at around $38billion per year. One committee, the NIAA, […]
