Heathcote Community Update A letter from Lee Evans – your State MP
from February 2023
As a regular reader of the Illawarra Flame you will be aware by now of my plans to create a Helensburgh Sporting Precinct.
In November I was thrilled to announce $3.2 million for a much needed upgrade to Helensburgh Pool. Then in January $83,200 for the Helensburgh Thistle Junior Soccer Club to upgrade toilets and referees’ facilities at Rex Jackson Oval, making them more accessible and female friendly.

This is a fantastic start but we and all local club presidents (of Rugby League, Soccer, Netball, Cricket, Little Athletics and Off Road Cycle Clubs) have a much larger vision. We are working on a future proofed solution.

Since 2011 you have trusted me to deliver for the Northern Illawarra and this is a trust I continually seek to deserve.
Lee Evans, Member for Heathcote
