Neighbourhood houses online
Did you know there are more than 500 neighbourhood houses around Victoria? And in response to the pandemic they are all doing different things, their own special mix of community engagement and support, responding directly to the needs of their local neighbourhood … utilising the skills within their staff and community, and the historical strengths of their own houses. Some are building up food relief efforts, some are keeping in touch through phone calls, some are building online communications, some are focussing on place-based neighbourhood activities and projects and some are running online activities.
And … the great thing about activities online is that anyone can join in from anywhere …
So today here’s just a few ideas of some online activities running from other houses across Victoria for the next week or two that might tickle your fancy:
