To mark international women's Day, Jo speaks to Marina Maguire, our Yass Valley Australia Day Community Ambassador for 2026.

As a mentor and advocate for mental health, Marina works with people to rebuild confidence and navigate life’s next chapter through coaching, mentoring and equine-assisted programs. Her work with Remount, supporting veterans and their families, has made a significant contribution to the community.

Marina is also fresh from the Yass Valley Business Chamber International Women’s Day Breakfast, where she was part of the panel discussion alongside a group of distinguished local leaders - a wonderful example of women sharing their experience and leadership in a spirit of collaboration.
