🌟 Mayor Greg Williamson popped into Magpies to present Jasmine Fuhlbohm, the 2024 Mackay Regional Council Young Citizen of the Year, with her award.

🫀 Jasmine has worked tirelessly to raise funds (more than $7,000) and raise the awareness of the need for defibrillator machines across various charities, organisations and locations within the Mackay community that would otherwise not have access to this vital resource.

🫶 Jasmine unexpectedly lost her father to a heart attack when she was only 10 years old. He was just 39 years old. This cause is very close to her heart.

Well done Jasmine!
