Regardless of our different faiths, abilities, cultures, ages, orientations and genders - we want to make sure that our communities are safe and welcoming for all.
There are many ways to take part! From hosting a multicultural potluck or film screening to providing prevention information / resources in other languages, there are thousands of ways big and small to make our households, neighbourhoods, schools and businesses even more inclusive. It could even be as simple as learning from a neighbour how to say ‘hello’ in their first language or ensuring local footpaths are clear and accessible.
Want to share your thoughts? Let us know how you’re creating inclusive communities this month by tagging us in your social media posts or emailing us your photos, videos, or experiences to:

Join the festivities this Friday 2nd July from 6pm outside the Town Hall (Library) and grab a hot chocolate or a bite to eat. Then, at 7pm, see the spectacular lighting being switched on for the first time right along Main Street, as it transforms into a magical winter wonderland. Weather is looking good for this free event so head along with your family for some winter night time fun.
