Highlighting unique stories of local people was the motivation behind starting his Facebook page It’s Port Adelaide. Darryl is expanding on this with our new PAE People project, by capturing more of the inspirational, touching and unique stories of the people living across the city.
Telling the stories of the people who make up our diverse community helps to create stronger connections, and Darryl hopes that together PAE can continue to grow as a collective and everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
He will be travelling around PAE to capture stories and photos, and will be sharing them through our social media pages and a regular PAE People feature.
Darryl shares our view that people are the most important ingredient in any place. “There’s no doubt the shiny things are important, but it’s the people that make our community so incredible, ” he says.
If you know of any unsung heroes that should be acknowledged as PAE People, please contact communications@cityofpae.sa.gov.au
I tell stories and share photos because the local, selfless champions within our community deserve to be celebrated and embraced. By shining a light on them it acknowledges their efforts and highlights that there are so many good people doing good things.
