Our Coast, Our Future

Let's get things done

I am Nicole Arrowsmith, your Community Independent Candidate for Moncrieff.

I am a local leader, community champion, senior business professional and working mum who’s determined to get things done for the Gold Coast. 

When I moved to the Gold Coast in the early 2000s, I knew I was home. But while from the outside our world-famous Gold Coast looks as dazzling as ever, locals know we’re straining under the weight of rapid population growth, and 40 years of being taken for granted as a safe seat. 

Throughout my career I have delivered results across health, conservation, arts, culture and transport. I deeply understand the challenges we’re facing which is why I'm standing for federal parliament. As an Independent voice I am accountable to you, not a political party, and with a strong crossbench, we can be a force to push action on the issues that matter.
