Port Wakefield Who's Who
Public Profile
As a fitness coach at Curves in Jamison, I help women with strength, endurance, flexibility and overall fitness. This is what we need to avoid Dementia and aged care for as long as possible. I fundraise for Dementia research and assist young Aussie scientists with their PhDs in the hope that one of them will find the greatly needed cure.
Dementia Demolition Squad. That's what we want to do - demolish dementia from our world. We organise and manage community events to fundraise for a cure. As authorised fundraisers for Neuroscience Research Australia (NeuRA) we sponsor PhD scientists each year, assisting them in their research to find the cure.

Distinguished and Famous people from Port Wakefield
🏎️ Jack Brabham
Jack Brabham won his first Australian Grand Prix at Port Wakefield in October 1955, driving a Cooper-Bristol. The result gives the town a direct place in Australian motor-racing history, years before Brabham’s name became synonymous with world championship success. The circuit hosted a national event on a modest stretch of South Australian ground, and a later plaque marked the fiftieth anniversary of the victory. His association here is a race and a result: Port Wakefield was the setting for a significant early success in a career that would eventually carry Australian engineering and driving talent onto the world stage.
