Dear Editor,
As another year comes to a close, I want to take a moment to reflect on the past twelve months and express my gratitude for the privilege of serving as the Member for Mildura. It is something I never take for granted and I will continue working to make sure our region’s voice is heard and that we receive the investment and attention we deserve.
Thank you to everyone who contributes to making our region such a wonderful place to live and work. Whether you are running a small business, volunteering at a community organisation, working on the land, or simply lending a hand to a neighbour, your contribution strengthens our region every single day.
I am grateful for the continued support of my electorate and colleagues and for the opportunity to continue to serve the people of the Mildura electorate as we work together to achieve a better future for all.
As the holiday season approaches, I would like to acknowledge those who will spend this time serving our community, often sacrificing moments with their loved ones. Please know that your dedication is deeply appreciated and warmly recognised.
To support our emergency workers and keep everyone safe, I encourage all to follow road rules, stay vigilant near the water, drink responsibly, and show care and kindness to one another.
However you choose to mark the festive season, I hope it brings moments of joy, rest and connection with the people who matter most.
Wishing everyone a joyful and safe Christmas and New Year.
Warm regards,
Jade Benham MP
