Dear Resident of the Berowra Electorate,



I encourage you to take part in my 30-Second Survey.

Your feedback is important to me.
 
It helps me as your Federal MP to represent our community in Parliament.

It also helps me understand the priorities for our community, whether it's fixing a heavily congested road or upgrading sports facilities or playgrounds. 

By completing my survey, you can share with me the issues that concern you most.

This newsletter also contains information on some exciting grants that are now open for submission.

If you have any question please feel free to contact me at Julian.leeser.mp@aph.gov.au or (02) 9980 1822.

Kind regards,
 
Julian Leeser
