What is the workshops about?

Taking Action in Your Community

Discover how to kickstart grassroots initiatives and make a difference locally. Learn practical ways to improve your town—even with just $15! This hands-on workshop will guide you through finding an action and making it happen.

Choose from two dates.

• Thursday 22 May - 9:30am to 12pm Burnie Harness Racing Club (1-7 PEARL Street, Wivenhoe Tasmania 7320)
• Friday 13 June - 5pm to 7.30pm Burnie Bowls Club (15 FIDLER Street, Cooee Tasmania 7320)

We are offering the workshop twice, once during work hours and once after work hours, to accommodate different schedules and reach more people.

All sessions will include light refreshments.

There is an option for child care – bring your young person and a carer will entertain them while you join the workshop.

Why is Burnie Works introducing Town Teams to Burnie?

Burnie Works exists to help the Burnie community create meaningful change and improve lives. We believe that building knowledge, skills, and experience within our community strengthens our ability to drive positive change together.

To support this, we’ve developed a program to deliver Community Capability Building workshops, such as Town Teams!
