CREATING CONNECTIONS Volunteer Forum brings together volunteers and volunteer involving organisations, along with government departments and agencies, to establish and strengthen volunteer networks throughout the Loddon Mallee.  CREATING CONNECTIONS will be held in Kerang October 4 and all volunteers and volunteer involving organisations are welcome!

CREATING CONNECTIONS features workshops, presentations, networking opportunities, inspiring speakers and the chance to find out who’s doing what throughout the Loddon Mallee. You’ll get the chance to share stories, resources, information, learnings and opportunities and discover how other groups and organisations respond and deal with the challenges that volunteer and community groups face every day. Get more out of your fundraising efforts, learn how to engage young people in volunteering, discover how to use innovation to increase your resources, know how to recruit for diversity and make sure you are covered for the tricky things like risk management, insurance and planning.

Registrations start from $55 for an individual or $110 for a not-for-profit organisation and includes full attendance at the conference AND the conference dinner.  Early bird discounts apply and registrations can be found online at  www.creatingconnections.org.au Please see the attached invitation and associated media release and for more information please contact Jacqueline Brodie-Hanns on 0425 323 005.

CREATING CONNECTIONS is being presented by the Mount Alexander Volunteer Network in association with the Bendigo Volunteer Resource Centre and the Inglewood Community Resource Centre with support from Regional Development Australia (Loddon Mallee) and the Department of Planning and Community Development.
