Liberal candidate for Manly, Adelaide Cuneo, will continue James Griffin's strong record of delivering and fighting for her local community.
A lifelong local, Adelaide attended Stella Maris in Manly, and has recently purchased her first home in Freshwater.
After working in senior NSW Government roles, turning community priorities into actions, Adelaide has been working with an environment and energy not-for-profit on evidence-based policy and practical outcomes to drive more affordable energy.
"Growing up and working in our local community has taught me how important it is to have a local Member who can deliver and fight for Manly, just as James has," said Ms Cuneo. "Whether it's backing local businesses or fighting for more funding for local roads, I look forward to the opportunity to represent my local community."
Raised in a small business family that operated their own business, Adelaide grew up understanding the hard work, long hours and sacrifice it takes to keep a small business running. Her own experience in hospitality, from working in local venues to training as a qualified chef, has given her a firsthand understanding of the pressures facing small businesses and the people who rely on them.
"Under this Labor Government, we've seen record numbers of small and family businesses close, losing countless local jobs. Our economy has gone from first to last under Labor, and household budgets are at breaking point," said Ms Cuneo.
"Only the Liberals can put an end to Labor's mismanagement. We have a plan to build a stronger NSW, where people can get ahead and stay ahead, businesses have the confidence to grow and create jobs, and our community can feel safe again."
The outgoing Member for Manly, James Griffin MP, said our community needs someone who has the experience and skills to continue the important work of delivering and fighting for Manly.
"The people of Manly deserve a representative who will deliver for them from day one - better transport, infrastructure and lower taxes," Mr Griffin said.
"Adelaide Cuneo is the right person to deliver and fight for the residents of Manly."
As part of Kellie Sloane's Liberal team, Adelaide will ensure that Manly gets investment in the infrastructure, services and community amenities that it needs.
