Free workshops for event organisers
Published on 06 June 2024
A free series of workshops will be held over June for local event organisers, volunteer managers and community groups as part of a program called ‘Connecting’.
“These workshops aim to support event organisers and volunteers, by providing free training,” Manager Environmental and Economic Planning, Sharyn French.
“These free workshops for our vibrant events community are proudly funded by the NSW Government via the NSW Social Cohesion Grants for Local Government – Round 2. There are so many great small events in the Byron Shire each year, and we hope these workshops will help them become even better.
“Event organisers and volunteers are encouraged to register now!” she said.
