What a magnificent day!
My sincere thanks to everyone who made this year’s G21 Regional Forum at the RACV Torquay such a huge success. The resounding takeaway: community connection is the bedrock of good health & wellbeing.
A day of thought-provoking presentations on “growing well together” began with Dr Norman Swan’s keynote which revealed the profound impact of mental health on physical health, and the importance of having a sense of meaning & control as we navigate life’s pressures. In a cost-of-living crisis, not so easy.
We talked about the cost of food & our growing food relief network, local restaurants making a social impact & creative leaders bringing joy to our communities. Just as important were the conversations off stage – connections were made, ideas were hatched, and our community network was strengthened.
A big thank you again to Major Sponsor Built., along with TAC, WorkSafe, The Gordon, Making Change Arts Program, Times News Group, Deakin University, Urbis and Tract for making the day possible. We are grateful for the positive impact you have on our region’s health & wellbeing.
