I know and love our Bayside community.
What makes it so incredibly special is our people.
We are tight-knit, get involved in clubs and community organisations, and we look out for one another.
In the last decade, I’ve worked hard to rebuild community services and infrastructure.
The LNP closed our Wynnum Hospital and Moreton Bay Nursing Care Unit. And they gutted local services.
I'm working hard for you.
My achievements include the new Wynnum Manly Community Health Centre, the Ambulance Station in Wynnum West, the Lindum Station Accessibility Upgrade, Darling Point Special School and Manly State School Big Build, and many more.
But there’s still more to do.
I want to work to expand local health services, like publicly available dialysis and x-ray machines and ensure that major infrastructure projects like the Lindum Level Crossing Upgrade are completed.
I am passionate about advocating for
our community.
Improving health services, upgrading local infrastructure, protecting the environment and establishing support for survivors of domestic violence are issues close to my heart.
I care about equality of opportunity for all and see the policy-making process as a vehicle to build stronger communities.
I'm your Shadow Minister for Small Business, Customer Service and Open Data.
As a former small business owner, I know the importance of our hard-working small business community.
I’ve lived locally in our Bayside for over thirty years with my husband Peter, raising our two children.
I’ve been a committed volunteer for Nursing Mothers, the Wynnum BUGS Rugby Club, Bulimba Hockey and various local schools and kindergartens.
I’m currently the patron of the Wynnum Manly Historical Association, the Wynnum Manly Yacht Club, the Bayside Woodturners and Woodcrafters Club, the Wynnum Choral Society and the Bayside Eastern District Orchid Society.
Our Bayside is a great place to
live, work and
raise a family.
I will continue to work hard each and every day to
ensure it remains that way.
I'm Joan Pease 👋
It’s the greatest honour of my life to represent our Bayside community as your State Member for Lytton since 2015.
My Bayside Priorities
Since 2015, I've fought hard to secure better local infrastructure for our growing community. I've:
- Delivered a $62.4 million accessibility upgrade of the Lindum Station precinct.
- Delivered more parking for Lindum Station and a Park n Ride for Manly Station.
- Delivered Self-service bicycle locker for Manly Station.
- Secured $10 million for the realignment of and safety improvements to the Lindum level crossing.
- Secured vital revitalisation upgrades in the Wynnum CBD.
- Delivered safety improvements to the Manly Boat Harbour.
- Delivered an environmental study to protect the Wynnum Foreshore.
Since 2015, I've fought hard to ensure the Bayside offers world-class educational opportunities to all young people. I've:
- Delivered a $34m rebuild of Darling Point Special School.
- Delivered multi-million-dollar classroom upgrades for Manly State School and Wynnum State High School.
- Secured air conditioning for all Lytton state school classrooms.
- Delivered free kindy for all 4-year-olds.
Since 2015, I've fought hard to ensure Bayside community groups receive the funding, support and infrastructure they need to thrive. I've secured over $42 million in grants for Lytton community groups, and supported countless critical projects including new lighting, upgraded playing services, and improved facilities. I've also secured:
- Thousands of dollars in cost-of-living relief for Bayside families.
- 20% off vehicle registration (since cancelled by the LNP).
- Created hundreds of jobs by supporting expansions to our local industries, and businesses, the Port of Brisbane, and the Bayside arts scene.
Since 2015, I've worked hard to reverse the LNP's brutal cuts to local health services. I've:
- Restored primary healthcare facilities by delivering Wynnum Manly Community Health Centre, Gundu Pa.
- Delivered a new ambulance station for the Bayside.
- Supported the delivery of a new aged care facility (opening 2026), with culturally-appropriate facilities for First Nations people.
