Geoff Baker grew up in Como before his family moved to the suburb of South Perth when he was a teenager.

The electorate of South Perth is where he learned to walk, how to ride a bike, and how to drive a car - and over 40 years Geoff would have walked, biked or driven along pretty much every street in the electorate. It's a community he cherishes. 

Geoff lives here with his family, and he always says he feels lucky everyday to be here and watch his daughters grow up in the same area he did.

Geoff knows that good jobs, quality local schools, accessible health care, efficient transport and safe and secure neighbourhoods are crucial to helping individuals and families get ahead and have better lives.

As a father of two young girls, it's his belief that no matter who you are, or where you live - you should have access to opportunities to reach you full potential to succeed in life.

It’s this core belief and his long history with the community that drives Geoff to get things done for the South Perth electorate.
