Vickie Chapman MP
Vickie lives locally in the electorate of Bragg and is very active in the local community, listening to the concern of residents.
Before entering Parliament, Vickie worked as a lawyer and ran her own small business which has helped her be of assistance to many local people who’ve been let down by the Rann Labor Government.
Vickie has been at the forefront of the Liberal Party’s fight to save the Glenside Hospital to ensure the site is preserved to help those suffering mental illness and not to be used as a film hub.
Having been a Member of Parliament since 2002, Vickie has been disappointed at the lack of action by the Rann Government in addressing critical service and infrastructure issues for our community, and in failing to deliver their promises.
She is currently the Shadow Attorney General and Shadow Minister for Justice and is widowed with two adult children.
