Meet your local delegate – David Grant

David Grant

Belmont

Why did you become involved in the union?
 Well, in the first place I was just asked to help out, so I did. But then I found I enjoyed it and really liked helping my workmates and standing up for our rights in the workplace.

What are your hobbies and interests?
 I play a fair bit of golf and I like all sorts of sports. I also like travelling and next year I have 15 weeks off so I am planning to travel around Australia in a caravan.

Where do you live and why do you like it? I live in Lake Macquarie and I enjoy the country lifestyle – not the hustle and bustle. It’s laid back and it’s not too far from the wineries.

Who would you like to have dinner with (dead or alive) and why?
 I’d have dinner with Greg Norman. He’s a boyhood idol and I’d like to ask him what made him get so far in all those tournaments.
