Renewal or Ruin?: Barack Beaconsfield Public Housing

Wednesday, 23 February 2022 - 5:30pm to 6:00pm

Fiona talks to Margaret Kelly, long-time public housing resident of Barack Beaconsfield estate in Port Melbourne which has recently and unexpectedly been slated for "renewal" by the State Government. Shocked residents are fighting back about what they see as the destruction of their close-knit community to make way for gentrification of the area.

Dozens of HAAG members and staff stand in front of a quilted banner, their first raised in the air. The banner reads Housing for the Aged Action Group, housing for the aged is a right not a privilege.
Wednesday 5:30pm to 6:00pm
