Hindmarsh Shire Council wish to express condolences to the family, friends, and colleagues of Darren Griffin.

Council recognises Darren’s significant contribution in our community, particularly in his work with Barengi Gadjin Land Council and advocating for the Wotjobaluk, Jadawadjali, Wergaia, and Jupagulk Peoples of the Wotjobaluk Nations.

Darren worked very closely with Hindmarsh Shire Council for many years and was instrumental in the development and implementation of many Council projects. His sharing of his passion, knowledge and experience of Cultural Heritage has had a significant positive impact within the community, organisation, and individual staff who worked with him in the field.

Darren will be deeply missed, and our thoughts are with his family and all who knew him.
