Speak Up in the Bush: ‘Your right to be heard’
Wednesday 27 August 12:30-2:30pm | 1 Uniting Place
Join a vibrant and inclusive community conversation about self-advocacy and the power of lived experience. Learn about your right to have an opinion about things that affect you. You have a right to be included and heard no matter what your disability is. Together, we’ll explore the initiatives happening right here in our region, share stories, and shape positive change for people with disabilities and their families.
Let’s come together, spark ideas, and strengthen our community through connection and action. Your voice matters – and we’d love to see you there!
