Congratulations Lockie!

“The youth of Coffs Harbour are representing, with two community members up for state gongs.

The award is part of the 7NEWS Young Achiever Awards 2021.

Nominated for the Transgrid Indigenous Achievement Award is Lachlan Skinner, a Gumbaynggirr man whose passion for radio has seen him mentor young Aboriginal kids through the re-established Goori Radio Program.

Mr Skinner is also deeply involved with a number of other mentorship programs through the Coffs Harbour and District Local Aboriginal Land Council and an active volunteer with Coffs Harbour NAIDOC week, BU Festival and Saltwater, Freshwater Festival.

His commitment to bringing high quality and valued programs and events to the Coffs Harbour Aboriginal community has opened up training opportunities for youth in the area that has allowed access to programs usually only seen in cities.

With judging held on February 24, category winners will each receive $2,000 worth of prizes and a trophy.

One of the category winners will also be named the 2021 NSW/ACT Young Achiever of the Year and will receive a magnificent state trophy.” – Story from the Coffs Coast Advocate.

Congratulations to our Lockie Skinner for his nomination in the TransGrid Indigenous Achievement Award for 2021.

“To our Beautiful Women , support one another, care for one another, love one another, cherish your families and your beautiful jarjums and don’t be afraid to ask for help as we are here to support and guide you.” - Aunty Jenny Skinner

On the lead up to International Women's Day we want to acknowledge Women within community that are smashing it!

In no particular order we showcase Local Aboriginal Women in our community who go above and beyond and we at OneMob Radio thank them for their ongoing commitment to mob.

Pictured here is Jennifer Skinner (Aunty Jenny) a proud Gumbaynggirr Elder from Coffs Harbour.

Been in Education for 30 Years! Currently the AEO at Narranga Public School and Host of OneMob Radio’s Wake Up Derr with Aunty Jenny

We asked Aunty Jenny what her passions were and she responds "I have worked and volunteered in Coffs Harbour area for many many years. My journey of being in these roles in Community have been highlights of my life by giving back to our People and Community.".

Happy International Women's Day <3
