Transurban Grant Presentation

28 March 2025

On the 24th of February, I met with Transurban to congratulate Nurture National Animal Sanctuary on receiving a $10,000 grant to support their animal safety initiative. This program focuses on educating the community about securely transporting livestock and horses on busy roads, reducing risks for both animals and drivers. It covers essential skills such as properly attaching trailers and floats, securing animals to prevent injury, and raising awareness through printed materials, an online resource hub, and community outreach. Nurture National Animal Sanctuary started off as a small Leppington farm in 2019, and has expanded to 30 acres, providing refuge for farm animals and Maremma sheepdogs. Their volunteers across Camden, Liverpool, Blacktown, and Campbelltown work diligently to improve animal welfare. This grant will help them continue their mission of education and advocacy, ensuring safer transport and better care for displaced animals across NSW.
