Transition Town Vincent (TTV) is a not-for-profit community group aligned with the worldwide Transition Town movement, which assists communities transition into a more sustainable and resilient way of life. TTV started as Transition Town Mount Hawthorn in February 2014. TTV works to keep our community strong and sustainable by supporting local food production, protecting the environment and connecting people to achieve these goals. In the face of the climate crisis and peak oil, there are huge economic and social benefits in working smarter on food, energy, waste and recycling, housing, education, transport, flora and fauna. TTV holds events to raise awareness of these issues, provide information on how people can reap the benefits of sustainable living and connect people who can help each other in various ways. Some examples of our activities include: hands-on composting workshops; cycling safety workshops; info sessions on native plants, recycling, and growing food; Boomerang Bag sewing sessions; and regular movie nights to raise awareness of environmental and social issues. Social Media Policy for Facebook
TTV Social Media Policy has been developed to ensure the content under the TTV banners on the Website, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Twitter, and any future platforms is consistent with TTV values, aims and objectives. As a small non-profit organisation, the aim of this policy is to create a safe space for all. Only administrators can post but comments are open to the public. All posts are in the public domain, and care must be taken to ensure that the posts are accurate, don’t damage TTV’s reputation and consistent with TTV values. Administrators can remove any comments that are personal attacks, abuse, trolling, racist, sexist, disrespectful toward others, swearing, or containing illicit or illegal activities. Volunteer Administrators will warn or block contributors of offensive posts comments. TTV will only promote businesses that directly align with TTV values. Any unsolicited posts selling goods and services will be removed. Businesses that wish to be promoted should present their case to one or more of the Steering Committee, which is subsequently discussed on the TTV Steering Team page or a Steering Team Meeting.
