About GMRF

The Greater Manly Residents Forum started in late 2016 when the Northern Beaches Council - a result of the merger of the Manly, Warringah and Pittwater Councils - decided not to continue Manly Council's successful Precinct system. Despite this, residents from the Ivanhoe Park and Fairlight Precincts banded together to continue as an independent, combined group known as the Greater Manly Residents Forum.

VISION STATEMENT
"To assist the residents of Greater Manly to safeguard the culture and lifestyle of the area for residents, for the foreseeable future. To work with the Northern Beaches Council and the Government of New South Wales to ensure sustainable tourism, maintain and enhance the area as an ecologically sustainable environment with a lifestyle embracing diversity, tolerance and community engagement for the betterment of all."

COMMITTEE
Chair: Denise Keen
Co-Chair: Nick Reid
Treasurer: Nick Reid
Secretary: Vacant (please volunteer if you are able)
Media Coordinator: Gary O'Brien
Website/Facebook Coordinator: Susan Robertson
Noticeboard Coordinator: Meg Morgan
