Narelda Jacobs
Network Ten Perth’s News Presenter combines her passion and expertise for news on a daily basis.
In an industry well known for its ever-changing nature, Narelda has established herself as a prominent identity within the local community.
In 2000 Narelda joined Network Ten in Perth as a news reporter and in 2007 she was appointed presenter of Ten News at Five, at which time she became the first indigenous female news anchor for a commercial network.
Four years ago, Narelda was selected to represent Network TEN at a professional development program held at CNN in Atlanta Georgia (USA).
Narelda loves her home town of Perth, with the world’s warmest people and the best lifestyle. Her on air profile has given Narelda the opportunity to motivate teenagers across Perth to accept their social responsibilities.
Away from the television cameras, Narelda is an ambassador for Breast Cancer Care WA, the David Wirrpanda Foundation and the Disability Services Commission "Count me in" program.
She is also a patron of the Motor Neurone Disease Association WA, and is also a patron of a specialised program for indigenous students at Balga Senior High School. She's a mentor through the Smith Family and regularly visits girls in juvenile detention as a role model.
