No Limits Perth is a not-for-profit organisation in my electorate of Pearce that brings out the best in humanity, helping members of the community in crisis. This community based group helps victims of domestic violence, vulnerable families with children, the elderly and anyone doing it tough. No Limits Perth provides food, preloved furniture, toiletries and basic essentials, and relies on the support of the community, local businesses and volunteers, as well as schools and churches. For example, it receives donations of meals cooked by school food science classes, food collected by OzHarvest food rescue and furniture from businesses and individuals.

I would like to recognise the kindness and decency of the cofounders, Janine Wood, Belinda Hawes and Debbie Jordaan, who are truly inspirational human beings. Janine and the team are always ready to help, stepping in and stepping up when our community needs them. No limits Perth has recently helped a number of people who have been referred by my electorate office. I'm thankful for the seamless manner in which Janine and her team reach out with kindness and compassion. They consistently say they are restoring love, faith and hope one random act of kindness at a time. I thank them for their very important work in helping and supporting others.
