Don't miss this Friday's "report back" from the community visioning we participated in in the Clarence Valley last year. Can't wait to hear the picture we painted collectively 😃

CWA hall from 9.45am Friday 12th June

— with Peter Cuming at Maclean CWA.

Join us this Friday (12th) in Maclean to hear the story of what's possible for the future of the Clarence Valley, as perceived through the insights of 73 locals who participated in Imagine Northern Rivers. Together they explored opportunities for social, environmental, cultural and economic regeneration, and what we need to do (and stop doing) to get there.

The session is free and an opportunity to explore what steps can be taken towards community-led change. Register here: tinyurl.com/INRclarence
