OFFICE BEARERS

MATILDA JULIAN
A bit about me:
I live and grew up in Bilpin, and have a business making Apple Cider Vinegar. I want to do what I can to tread softly on our planet, and in particular, my pet topics are food waste and litter! I organise an annual Clean Up day in Bilpin, and do my small bit by educating and promoting around ‘reusing’ food.
My favourite things are Bush care, my dogs (including a Guide Dog Pup), getting my hands dirty in the garden and bird watching.
I welcome anyone with ideas for HEN to get in contact and become involved!
