Healthy Towns workshops brought together community members, health professionals and service providers this month in four Northern NSW towns: Evans Head, Maclean, Woolgoolga and Casino.
The passion and enthusiasm of the community has been a highlight at each event, with over 150 people attending to brainstorm local solutions to local issues.
The priorities covered included mental health, access to healthcare, transport, diet and exercise, ageing issues and more. The workshops have identified a handful of solutions to move forward with in each town. Working groups are being developed to progress program ideas.
