Helen was the Byron Bay Citizen of the Year 2020 and this year’s North Coast Volunteer of the Year. She is one of the Shire’s great contributors and an enormuse asset to the community.

"When it came to choosing who I thought should be our next Mayor, Bruce was the standout...I believe our Mayor needs to lead the team of people that are elected on December the fourth if we are to see action on the changes that are so desperately needed in our Shire.

Our Mayor also needs to bring us all into the tent. And I know from experience. Bruce is someone who works collaboratively, both at a governance and community level." - Helen Hamilton
