THE value of community can never be underestimated. Though we might not always like to admit it, as humans we need each other to survive this changing world. We need strong communities for the good times, and more importantly for the hard times.
It is because of this that the Greater Shepparton Flood Recovery team are hosting Our Shout, free get-togethers in Bunbartha, Undrea and Murchison.
These catch-ups will be a chance to grab a free coffee or tea and a bite to eat while connecting with other community members. Everyone is invited to come along and share stories about not only the October 2022 floods but to look to the future and build stronger social ties with their neighbours, even if the neighbours live across town.
Bunbartha catch-up will be held at the Bunbartha Community Centre on Wednesdays, January 22, February and March 19, from 6.30pm to 8pm.
Undrea catch-up will be held at the Undrea General Store, on Tuesdays, February and March 12, from 12pm to 2pm.
Murchison catch-up will be held outside the Murchison Heritage Centre, on Wednesdays, February and March 12, from 8am to 10am.
