Small biz friends (and venue lovers) — this is actually a big deal.

The government has launched a parliamentary inquiry into small business insurance because premiums have gone wild, especially for hospitality + live music.

Since COVID, 1300+ live music venues have closed across Australia , many due to insurance skyrocketing 5x, 10x, even 20x.

If you run a small business (or care about the ones you love), please consider lodging a quick submission at insuregoodtimes.org.au. It takes a few minutes and genuinely matters.

Submissions close March 6.
Every share + submission helps.

🚀 GET READY Footscray, exciting changes are coming! 🚀

The West Gate Tunnel opens SOON!!

Bringing faster and easier travel across Melbourne’s west, plus new ways for locals and visitors to reach our amazing business community.

🛍️ What to know as traders & business owners:

• New entry and exit points = refreshed traffic flow (a great chance to plan deliveries and access)

• More route options thanks to the twin tunnels and freeway upgrades

• 14km+ of new walking and cycling paths, including the sky-high veloway, could mean more people exploring and supporting local shops! 🚶‍♀️🚴‍♂️

Better roads. Better connections. Brighter business. 💛✨

Footscray is ready to move forward and thrive!
