Jodie Luke Copeland
Green Party candidate for Thornhill
Active on State
I'm a local resident standing in Thornhill, the place I've called home for nearly 50 years. I love Thornhill and want it to thrive. I've been part of this community all my life. As a teenager, I campaigned for a skate park and football pitch on Hinkler Green. Thornhill is full of good people who look out for each other, with a strong sense of community. It's special. I want better roads, safer streets, more activities for our children, warmer homes with lower bills, and protected green spaces. I'll listen, bring people together, and give Thornhill a strong Green voice.
