The latest Holdfast News - our fortnightly e-newsletter - is out now with a summary from this week’s council meeting which made history.

In a first for Holdfast Bay, the council meeting was all female-led, with the Mayor Amanda Wilson, Deputy Mayor Rebecca Abley and Acting CEO Pamela Jackson.

Holdfast Bay's high representation of women in leadership positions follows in the tradition of Brighton's own Susan Grace Benny, who 100 years ago, became the first woman elected to local government in Australia.
