Hello there,
I’m Clare Glade-Wright,
your new independent candidate
for Franklin.

PEOPLE.
NOT
POLITICS.

I am standing for State Parliament as a community-minded independent as I am passionate about bringing a collaborative approach to politics. I won’t have to answer to a party boss, and will only be answerable to my electorate.

WHO
AM I

I’m a community-minded Southern Tasmanian – Mum to two small children, Deputy Mayor of the Kingborough Council, and a former award-winning tourism operator with a law degree. I know what it’s like to stretch the family finances in small business, and to want action on big issues. I listen to and advocate for others, driven by a strong work ethic and the values of integrity, inclusion, transparency and accountability.

WHY
AM I
RUNNING

During my time in Local Government much of my advocacy has been aimed at state issues, from road safety concerns to state-wide approaches to developer contributions and bushfire bunker accreditation. As a community-minded independent, I can cut through party politics to focus on the needs in Franklin. I am passionate about bringing a more collaborative approach to Tasmanian politics.

WHAT
I STAND
FOR

Putting Franklin First means State decisions must benefit our community so everyone has the opportunity to thrive. I stand for a fair share of government investment and programs, including better access to local health care and housing, improved public transport and sporting facilities here in Franklin. Franklin deserves that, and I have the commitment to make it happen.

Clare took the time out of her busy schedule to come and meet with club stakeholders and understand the issues, opinions and suggestions from various people.

Clare then went away and considered the arguments, she encouraged council staff and other elected members to also come and understand the issues themselves so that they could be better informed around the problems a particular council decision would cause within the community.

President of the Kingborough Tigers Sports Club.

In recognition of the deep history and culture of this Island, I would like to acknowledge the First Nations people, the traditional owners of the Land here in Franklin. I acknowledge and pay my respects to all Tasmanian Aboriginal Communities; all of whom have survived invasion and dispossession, and continue to maintain their identity and culture.
