At December's council meeting in St Arnaud, council resolved to review future community care service options in light of sweeping aged care sector reforms. The decision follows Federal Government changes to the way aged care services are funded and delivered, with new rules coming into effect in November. You can find more via the link below.
Join us in Great Western on Saturday, November 1 from 3pm for a family-friendly afternoon featuring food trucks, live music and some of the region's best artisan producers.
The market will follow on from The Lion Chase fun run event which is taking place around town in the morning, you can see the details for that event here, meaning Great Western is definitely the place to be for the whole day (if not the whole weekend!).
It's being held on the oval at the Great Western Thomson Community Centre on Brunel Street so mark the date in your diaries now and join us for what's shaping up to be a great afternoon.
If you would like to book a stall, please register your interest by emailing secretary@greatwesternfnc.com.au and we'll come back to you with the details.
Find out more about the event on our Facebook page here.
