 Natalie SULEYMAN (St Albans – Minister for Veterans, Minister for Small and Family Business, Minister for Employment, Minister for Tourism) (10:01): On another matter I would like to congratulate Laura Kretiuk, the club’s first woman president in 79 years at St Albans Football Club. Laura also volunteers at the Loaves and Fishes foodbank in St Albans. Volunteers like Laura are so important to ensure that services continue delivering food packs but also supporting local sporting clubs in our community.

I would also like to make a special mention of club legend Marion Hewitt, who I met the other day at the ladies event. She met her late husband Tommy at the club some 60 years ago. It was a real love affair. She is a proud St Albans local and a strong supporter of St Albans Football Club. Thank you to the St Albans Football Club ladies committee for a fantastic day and to the committee, the volunteers and everybody that makes St Albans Football Club great and for providing sport and activity for our young people. Go the Saints.
