Dr MARJORIE O'NEILL (Coogee) — Mr Speaker I would like to take this opportunity to thank the Ted Noffs Foundation and recognise the work that they do across New South Wales, and in my electorate of Coogee. Earlier this month, I had the pleasure of meeting with the Acting CEO of the Ted Noffs Foundation, Mark Ferry, and Wesley Stokes, who works at the Ted Noffs Foundation as an Alcohol and Drug Worker, who told me about the work that they do in our Eastern Suburbs community. The Ted Noffs Foundation works to provide services to socially disadvantaged and disconnected young people, including those from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander backgrounds, and those from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds who can face particular isolation in society. The Ted Noffs Foundation has a particular focus on those with drug and alcohol problems, and the mental health issues that arise from these problems, and work to engage and maintain positive social relationships with young people doing it tough. With all of the work that the Ted Noffs Foundation does, I would like to take this opportunity to thank them for their contributions to our community.
