Sophie Torney. Independent Candidate for Kew 
I am a businesswoman and community volunteer who champions respect and integrity and seeks to offer our community an alternative and fresh start as your independent candidate for Kew.
The new independent voices in Canberra have demonstrated an exciting new era in politics. And now in Kew we can do the same: to raise the standard of leadership and debate, enable individual voices, deliver evidence based policy and secure freedom of representation without the constriction of party politics. Now is the time for us to push ahead for what our community wants: a fresh start with integrity, working for a stronger economy and real progress on climate action.
I have lived in Kew for 23 years with my husband Tony and three children and have immersed myself deeply in the community.
