Talking about 'Save the heart of our community' campaign

The webDotWizards group is one of many special interest groups that meet together at the Rushworth Community House. Recognition of the importance of such groups by the State Government is vital and funding for all services to Neighbourhood and Community Houses needs the financial support of Government.

'Save the heart of our community' campaign

The Assoc. of Neighbourhood Houses and Learning Centres (ANHLC) has a submission before the Bracks Government for $84 million over 5 years for the 350 neighbourhood houses for increased recurrent funds for coordination.

On 2 November coordinators in the Rodney electorate met with their local member Noel Maughan at Tongala Communty Centre to launch the 'Save the heart of our community' campaign. Members of the community are encouraged to write to Minister Candy Broad with stories of how their neighbourhood house has made a difference in their lives. Noel encouraged us to start petitions which he will present to Parliament when it resumes in February 2006.
