I would like to recognise and thank Andrew Lee for his tireless contribution to the Northern Beaches Community through his leadership of the Vipers Run Club and its initiative, Move for 60. Over the past four years, Andrew's work with the Vipers Run Club has raised more than $500,000 for charities, that support vital crisis counselling and suicide prevention services. He has also played a vital role for leading the inaugural Vipers Community Ball, which has raised nearly $100,000 to assist the Jenkins family. Through his commitment to the Vipers Run Club, he has been able to build such a strong and supportive community fostering connection, resilience and a culture of giving across the Northern Beaches. Clubs like these are so important for our community, as they provide meaningful connection, and foster wellbeing, and a sense of belonging for all members across the community. On behalf of the Wakehurst, I thank Andrew for his tireless work, generosity and commitment to building connection, resilience and support across our community, and I recognise the lasting impact he has made across our community.
