Noosa Today will be among nine presenters who will offer local community groups advice and assistance at Council’s popular Grants, Network and Nibbles Night.
Council hosts the evening of presentations, good food and catching up for community groups to find out what free grants, services and infrastructure is out there for them.
It follows the success of the first Grants, Network and Nibbles Night last July.
Nine presenters from different organisations that kindly give to the community will speak at the event, which will be held from 5.30pm to 7.30pm, Thursday 2 February at The J.
The night will bring community groups together with organisations such as Noosa Council, Bendigo Bank, June Canavan Foundation, Unitywater, Noosa Today, My Sunshine Coast, Sport and Rec (Qld Govt), SUEZ and Tourism Noosa to talk funding, infrastructure and support.
Community Development Manager Alison Hamblin said Council was excited to be holding the evening again after the popularity of the last event.
“More than 120 local community group representatives came along last time and we received great feedback from many of them about the format of the night,” she said.
“Each of the presenters have five minutes to speak about what they can offer, so it’s a very fast-paced and informative night.”
The evening will also include time for community groups to get together and have a chat and a bite to eat.
“We received a lot of feedback, from the community group volunteers who came along, about how they really enjoyed getting together to talk about common resources and issues, plus it gives them a chance to collaborate,” Ms Hamblin said.
