Work in the Disability or Social Service Sector? Join AllAbilities Network!
Council has started a network involving organisation representatives and individuals from the disability and social services sectors to create an opportunity for people to meet and share information and experiences. With a common aim to build an inclusive town for everybody, AllAbilities Network can be a chance for attendees to share their organisation’s new program and initiatives with likeminded people. It is held quarterly at a different local organisation each time and features a small presentation from a guest speaker.
