An elected Liberal Government will support healthy lifestyles and deliver new recreational opportunities by investing $300,000 in the construction of a new skate park at the Derrinallum Recreation Reserve.
Liberal Member for Wannon, Dan Tehan MP, has secured this commitment to ensure local youth and families in Derrinallum and the wider district now have an outdoor space that supports active living and social connection.
"I’ve had strong feedback from the local community about the need for a new skate park to provide a safe, inclusive, and modern facility for young people,” Mr Tehan said.
Kevin Molesworth, President of the Derrinallum Progress Association, welcomed the announcement.
“The skateboard park will provide a wonderful outdoor play space and a much-needed meeting place for young and old, families, visitors and tourists. I want to thank Dan for listening to our community and responding to our request for support for this project.”
“I’ll always listen and fight for our community. This project will offer young people a fun and healthy outlet, while also creating a vibrant community hub,” Mr Tehan said.
This commitment is part of the Liberals’ plan to strengthen our local communities and to get Australia back on track. To read more about our plan, visit https://www.liberal.org.au/our-plan.
