Federal Minister Anika Wells runs what we believe is the best of all portfolios: sport.
From her days of playing and umpiring as a kid to setting up a parkrun on Brisbane’s northside that’s still operating today, Anika Wells understands that sports participation is crucial to community connection in an increasing digital world.
Do we discuss Brisbane 2032? OF COURSE WE DO! But as exciting to us in the opportunity that sport has following the ban on social media.
