Today I talk about Kim Trevithick, a Blacktown local with a tireless love for the city.
Kim is best known for brightening up the Blacktown CBD with her busking and visible and outspoken love for the Parramatta Eels.
She is immediately recognisable and is a local celebrity. Kim is unfortunately restricted in her movement but her wheelchair gets her around Blacktown, where she provides entertainment through busking and keeps an eye on, and reports promptly, any safety issues.
Alongside her is her husband, Fred. This pair of good Samaritans make their way around the CBD, offering help to those more in need.
Kim often visits my office to report the day's happenings, making helpful suggestions and providing feedback.
Her performances can also be witnessed on TikTok. Soon Kim will become a worldwide sensation.
I thank Kim for her unwavering love of Blacktown. I look forward to many more years of her advocacy, busking and friendship.
