Congratulations Youth Member for Barwon - Melinda Ryan

Congratulations to Melinda Ryan of Coonabarabran the 2020 'Y' Youth Parliament Member for Barwon!

Melinda was born in Broken Hill, lived in Wilcannia and went to Primary School in White Cliffs before moving with her family to Coonabarabran.

Melinda has a personal focus on inclusion, which she quickly learnt at a school of 7 in White Cliffs, she wants to be a voice for those that have been silenced.

She's also a State Horse Riding Champion and school debater!

Congratulations Melinda - I look forward to seeing you in Parliament later this year.

Thank you to all the young people who applied for Youth Parliament - our future looks bright with you all taking charge.
