Essendon Fields offers its sincere condolences to the family of Senator Kimberley Kitching following her tragic death yesterday.

Senator Kitching had been a valued member of the Essendon Fields community for more than two years, having moved her electoral office to the precinct in 2019. Just this week Senator Kitching was featured as an inspiring female leader in a story from Essendon Fields to promote International Woman’s Day.

Essendon Fields CEO Brendan Pihan said: “Many people at Essendon Fields will remember Senator Kitching well. She loved our sense of community and we will all mourn her loss. We extend our thoughts and best wishes to her family.’’
