On behalf of Manningham Council, I offer my sincere condolences to His Majesty King Charles III, The Royal Family and our residents mourning the loss of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

I share the grief experienced by many in our community, who woke to news of The Queen’s passing overnight, having never experienced a world without her presence, a presence which will undoubtedly stay with us throughout our lives.

The Queen’s strength and compassion transcended geographic borders, languages, cultures, and times of peace and turmoil.

Our Queen was affectionately treasured and respected as a symbol of hope and endless possibilities, particularly for girls and women inspired by her historic reign, and our adoration lives on.

May she rest in peace.

Manningham Council Mayor,
Cr Michelle Kleinert
