RISING STAR WENDY WILKINS: "LET'S START A MOVEMENT TO SET UP A PLACE FOR DISPLACED PEOPLE IN DESERTED TOWNS ALL OVER THE WORLD"
Authority Magazine & Thrive Global, August 1, 2019
My sister, recently passed and she was passionate about the inhumane treatment of refugees, we had many conversations about this. Traveling through Spain, with a friend a couple of years ago, we came across a beautiful little town that was basically crumbling and almost deserted. I would set up all over the world, in towns like this, a refugee centre, a place for displaced people, where they can live and learn trades, basically create a whole community. Teachers, painters, plumbers, language teachers carpenters, bakers, organic farming. People with these skills would teach these trades to displaced people and help rebuild these towns. They could end up creating a community and bringing deserted towns back to life. Then if, at some stage, it was safe to return to their country they could decide to stay in their new community or bring back a trade that would be useful to help rebuild their respective towns. This would help local unemployment, empower people, relieve housing shortages and treat people with respect.

EIN Presswire, April 23, 2021
Wendy Wilkins’ past experience in law enforcement is finally beginning to pay off for her with acting roles in law enforcement. She explains, “I was a cop for five years and pretty much dealt with everything you can imagine a cop would deal with, from murder to mayhem to undercover work. It was a great life experience and was helpful in informing my acting, though as a cop you are taught to keep your emotions in check, whereas as a creative artist your senses are bubbling near the surface.”
RISING STAR, WENDY WILKINS: “SEX, LOVE & COPS” A MEMOIR
Press Pass LA, July 31, 2018
You may remember we featured Australian actress and Hollywood newcomer, Wendy Wilkins a few years back. We caught back up with Wendy in time for the debut of her memoir, “Sex, Love & Cops” and to chat about her feature film at Dances with Films Festival.
PPLA: Since we last spoke, a lot has happened in your career. You are about to debut a memoir about your time being a cop, prior to pursing real estate and acting. What inspired you to write this and what can readers expect?
Yes, I’m really excited! It’s my memoir of my five years as a young cop, called “Sex, love & cops.”. As well as being an actress, I write and am creating content. I had been jotting down stories as I told them to my friends. If I had a dollar for every surprised reaction I get when people find out I was a cop, I would be able to buy a nice island like Richard Branson’s getaway! I get lots of questions like “A real cop?” “Did you carry a gun?” “Oh… but in Australia, not much happened there!”
Look out for Wendy appearing as "Belle" in the classic American play "Rocket to the Moon" as part of the professional development play reading series streamed live across America on Saturday, July 27 @ 6:00PST.
