CHAMPION, Linda Jane

I have lived, worked, and raised my family in the Light Regional Council area for many years and am passionate about ensuring our community remains a vibrant, welcoming place to live. As a qualified lawyer with experience in business, community service, and local volunteer groups, I bring strong analytical skills and a commitment to fair and transparent decision-making. I believe Council should focus on core services such as safe roads, responsible financial management, and supporting local sport, heritage, and community events that bring us together. As your councillor, I will work hard to represent the views of all residents, advocate for sensible solutions to local challenges, and ensure accountability at every stage. I am committed to being approachable, open to feedback, and dedicated to building a strong future for the Mudla Wirra Ward and the broader Light Regional Council community.

MOULDS, Alan Wilfred

Although retired now from the workforce I continue my long involvement as a volunteer, with the CFS, Gawler Show & Red Cross / Life Blood. I am particular proud of my commitment to the Red Cross / Life Blood being a special donor and making 281 donations to date. Living in Gawler Belt for 37 years, I have made numerous detailed submissions regarding issues affecting the Mudla Wirra area, attended and addressed meetings of both Light & Gawler councils and attended information session. I have always given permission for my submissions to be published and made open to the public. I have formal qualifications in engineering and management with my last few years working as an Auditor. During my working life I was mainly based in the field working on remote sites. Although I did spend time in Corporate Head Offices, I was not desk bound at any time. With this back ground, efficient delivery of services and utilisation of council resources in a positive manner would be a key focus for me.

My husband and I have lived in Gawler River for the past 25 years, where we've raised our two children, now young adults. Over the years, I’ve been actively involved in our local community through various school and community groups, including as Chairperson of both the Angle Vale Preschool Board and the Gawler River Community Hall. I’ve worked in both small and large businesses in financial and leadership roles, which has given me a good understanding of how to solve problems, work with different people, and make thoughtful decisions. If I’m elected, I’ll work hard to make sure Council decisions are made openly and responsibly. I’m especially focused on making improvements in areas that matter to us all like roads, transport, education, and jobs. I want to be a strong voice for the Mudla Wirra community and help make it an even better place to live.

KENNEDY, Martin

I look forward to the challenge of being your Councillor for Mudla Wirra Ward. I believe I’m a good listener, level headed and will bring my broad life, work & volunteering experiences to the role. I want our Council to be about more than Road, Rates & Rubbish, and will listen to you as we form our vision for the future. I bring to the role my experience as a former Senior Sergeant of Police and a family man with four daughters & 7 grandkids. Living in Hewett since 2004 I have insight into the needs of families living there. I volunteered my whole life in many roles while working 40 years for SA Police, the last 16 managing operations across the Barossa Valley. Post full-time employment I gained some understanding of small business with 2 years as Business Manager of our Shipyard at Pt Adelaide. Current roles - Gawler Lutheran Schools Board, Gawler Lutheran Church Board & Gawler DV Network. Previous Governance roles - Chair Gawler Blue Light, Past President & Life Member BL&G Umpires.
