The theme of International Women’s Day is ‘Cracking the Code: Innovation for a gender equal future’. @TooraWomen and @VolACT join forces to acknowledge that equality will only be achieved with bold transformative ideas, inclusive innovation, and lasting solutions. #IWD #IWD2023

Loved the music this morning at Volunteering ACT Expo, on til 4pm today at Thoroughbred Park.
Great way to discover local groups who need your help to reconnect our community and reimagine our future. Thanks @VolACT, and to everyone who volunteers in our community.

Where are you sitting today? Are you in a good place or do you need to reach out for some support? It’s important to stop and think about how we’re doing mentally. Our mental health, just like our physical health, varies over time. If you need support, reach out 24/7 on 13 11 14.
