EOI’s required for caterers, entertainers and volunteers for ‘Reconnecting Communities’ community events…  
North Burnett Regional Council is planning a series of humorous, light hearted and ‘extraordinary’ events in each North Burnett community.  These exceptional events will feature one of Australia’s most in-demand motivational and inspirational speakers, who will “Re-ENGAGE the audience with Life!; Re-ALIGN audiences with their Vision & Goals; Re-INVENT attitudes and behaviours; Re-GENERATE Passion and Work/Home Balance; and Re-MIND the audience about what matters”.

The events, funded through the Queensland Government’s Tackling Regional Adversity through Integrated Care (TRAIC) Program aims to lighten the mood and spirit of North Burnett residents, encourage and support residents to access mental health services, increase knowledge of the range of services available in the region, and overcome the stigma associated with having a mental health issue.

Would you like to be involved?  Council is seeking Expressions of Interest from experienced or budding entertainers, community groups and Not-for-Profit organisations, to provide catering, entertainment or volunteer their services during the ‘Reconnecting Communities’ community events.  Expression of Interest close Monday, 4 February 2019.

The heavily subsidised community events are scheduled to be held at the following venues:

Biggenden Memorial Hall               Friday, 1 March        06:30pm for 07:00pm start

Gayndah Community Hall               Saturday, 2 March     06:30pm for 07:00pm start
