This week, we are proud to support National NAIDOC Week, embracing the theme "Blak, Loud and Proud". 🖤💛❤️
This powerful theme encourages us to celebrate Indigenous identity, amplify Indigenous voices, and strive for justice and equality. It's a call to listen, learn, and engage in meaningful dialogue, so we can build a society that truly values and respects the wisdom and contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities.
Together, let's forge a future that cherishes and celebrates the stories, traditions, and achievements of the oldest living culture in the world. @naidocweek #NAIDOC2024#NAIDOCWeek#BlakLoudProud... See MoreSee Less

Do you want to play your part in helping Yarra Ranges Council set their priorities over the next few years by being a member of their Community Panel?
They're looking for community members to join them at three upcoming workshops, plus an online introduction session, between July and August to help develop their 2025-2029 Council Plan.
To ensure they have a panel that represents the diversity of their region, they're strongly encouraging community members from traditionally under-represented groups, such as women, younger people, renters, LGBTIQA+, people with a disability or people from a culturally diverse background, to express interest in joining the panel.
The Community Panel will come together to discuss ideas, opportunities and challenges for Council now and into the future.
No expert knowledge is required, just a willingness to contribute in a group setting and an open mind to learning from others and finding solutions.
The session dates and times are as follows:
· Introductory session (online) - Wednesday, 17 July from 7pm-9pm · Meeting One on Saturday, 20 July from 9:30am to 3:30pm - Lilydale Civic Centre · Meeting Two on Saturday, 3 August from 9:30am to 3:30pm - Lilydale Civic Centre · Meeting Three on Saturday, 17 August from 9:30am to 3:30pm - Lilydale Civic Centre
Panel members will receive payment for their time, in recognition of their commitment and the importance of this work.
