Reshaping democracy from the local up
Who are we?
Really Local is a Castlemaine-based community group with no political affiliations. We have been working on various projects since 2024 (and since 2016 as “Democracy for Dinner”) including facilitating events, engaging people in elections and more.
The current working group is made up of local people including: Bryn Davies, Jim Buckell, Nikki Marshall, Kathryn McGoldrick, Wendy Hopkins, and SusanBecchio. Others have supported over time and we welcome new members!
We think Mt Alexander is a pretty awesome community. We believe that diversity makes us stronger and old and new together makes us better.
We believe we need to meet everyone's needs, not just the loudest.
