Kim Travers is the Federal Labor Candidate for Nicholls.
Kim Travers knows the rural and regional landscape in central Victoria. Whether it's volunteering via her roles in her local sporting club and opportunity shop, or volunteering and cycling with the Audax Club, she knows the pressures faced by her community.
With a wealth of working experience across retail banking, bus driving and the public service through to a proud union organiser, Kim knows the value of hard work and standing up for what's just and fair. From her childhood in a large housing commission estate to having built her own tiny house in a rural setting, she knows not everyone is born equal but that all Australians deserve access to equal opportunities.
Kim has seen the difference Labor Governments have made to the lives of all Australians, in health with the strengthening of Medicare, cheaper medicines and the focus on women's health, and the Labor vision for renewable energy including bill relief. Coming from a family of teachers, she will always fight for a better education system, for ensuring funding for all schools, Free TAFE, and the reduction of debt for tertiary students. Accessible and affordable childcare, and aged care facilities with qualified nurses are services that can only be guaranteed by Labor.
Kim Travers believes in fairness, inclusiveness and the power of many voices together. This is what she will deliver for the people of Nicholls.
