Paula Creen (Greens)

I was born and schooled in Mackay, and I’ve been back living here for the past 21 years. I’ve clocked up 12 years of towing people in boats back to safety with Volunteer Marine Rescue Mackay, and did 5 years as an active member of SES Mackay. 

I’m an active member of Mackay Conservation Group and Whitsunday Conservation Council, and an avid litter-picker. I’ve worked in the local building industry as a Building Designer and Drafter for 27 years. 

I have served on the committees and boards of a variety of community organisations to support people living with a disability and uphold their fundamental human rights in our region.

I want our region to thrive, but there are shops that have been vacant for over 15 years, since the first bust of our local coal-dependent economy. The number of locals without a home or who can’t afford basic necessities is heart breaking. 

If we want things to change, we have to do things differently. We need big corporations and billionaires to pay their fair share in tax so we can use that money to provide all the things that we need to live a good life: affordable housing, free childcare and genuinely free public education and healthcare. 

Nothing changes unless your vote does.

The Greens will take on the billionaires and big corporations that are ripping us off. We don’t take corporate donations like Labor and the LNP – we can’t be bought, and we won’t sell out. We’ll fight for you.

I want to see my community thrive again. Together, we can make it happen.

Will you join me?
