Horizon Power, has announced an illuminating initiative to enhance street safety in Carnarvon.
The Carnarvon Safer Streets project, a collaborative effort with the Western Australian Police Force and the Shire of Carnarvon, represents a $200,000 investment from Horizon Power, in public safety and community well-being.
The initiative will replace 31 outdated streetlights and introduce 41 additional lights in the Brockman area, aiming to bolster night-time visibility, reduce anti-social behaviour, and foster a secure atmosphere for Carnarvon's residents. This proactive measure was inspired by the WA Police's proposal, following Horizon Power's successful lighting upgrade in Derby.
Mike Houlahan, Horizon Power's Chief Financial Officer, expressed the company's enthusiasm: "Collaborating with our community partners to achieve positive outcomes is a source of great pride for us. These efforts contribute to safer living spaces and the overall vibrancy of our communities."
At Horizon Power, we are committed to creating safer, more vibrant communities. And with the Carnarvon Safer Streets initiative, we’re turning that commitment into action.

In your community
We had a blast at the recent Kununurra Ag Show – thanks to everyone from the community who stopped by to say g’day! Gilbert had a great time meeting locals and talking about safety, ways to save on your bill, the MyAccount app, CommunityWave and much more. We’ll see you all next year!
To mark the 50th anniversary of NAIDOC Week, our Kimberley Customer and Community team joined the community for a series of activities, including a breakfast, march, flag raising and a vibrant Community Day at White Gum Park in Kununurra. The Community Day opened with a Welcome to Country from Agnes Armstrong and a powerful Corroboree by the Waringarri Dance Group. Community members enjoyed a range of activities - from handball targets and colouring in, to weaving, painting, PCYC youth activities and a community barbecue. The day wrapped up with fantastic local entertainment by the talented Rhys Bedford, the PCYC Youth Band, youth karaoke and Fallout Boys. We’re proud to stand alongside our communities to keep the spirit of NAIDOC Week alive, celebrating culture and connection.
