Mark Boothman MP Blog - Community

Christmas is coming quickly and it is this time of year our small businesses need your support. Our local small businesses are the backbone of our local communities. They donate to local sporting groups and employ locals.

We have many convenience stores throughout the area like SPAR Express Studio Village.

Support the local small business this Christmas! Support the little guy!

Biggest tree plant (10,000) is happening at Oxenford till 1pm. So far we have planted over 3,000! Well done all involved and CR William Owen-Jones Division 2, Gold Coast for funding this event.
