Have you recently joined a community Board or Committee? Are you keen to make a difference? Do you worry about who will take your place when you want to step […]

The Tasmanian Seafarers' Memorial at Triabunna, Tasmania is unique in that it is a memorial to all Tasmanian seafarers who lost their lives at sea including Tasmanian members of the armed services, and those seafarers who, regardless of occupation or nationality, lost their lives in Tasmanian waters.

It also enables the commemoration of the lives of Tasmanian Naval personnel lost during peace time service as well as during times of conflict.

Tasmania's maritime history has been an eventful one which has tragically left many families touched in some by the relentless power of the sea.

The unpredictable seas around Tasmania's coastlines have claimed vessels from the days of sail to modern craft of today; they have claimed the lives of whalers and sealers, convicts and free settlers, traders and fishermen, sailors, seaman and yachtsmen of all ages and nations.

Have you recently joined a community Board or Committee? Are you keen to make a difference? Do you worry about who will take your place when you want to step down?

Are you wondering what the law needs you do to as a director or committee member? Do you puzzle over the financial reports? The Grassroots Community Governance program has been designed for you.

Workshop Topics

governance frameworks,
effective board meetings and decision making,
succession planning,
the roles of directors and office bearers,
leadership,
community engagement,
essential policies and procedures,
finances, budgeting and
strategic planning.

Register for the workshop at:  www.alkas.com.au

Three experienced presenters in the governance of not for profit and community organisations will facilitate the workshops – Steve Allen, Ella Dixon and Donna Bain. Their profiles are on the web site.

The Grassroots Community Governance program is a fully funded initiative of the Tasmanian Community Fund.  This workshop is generously supported by the Glamorgan Spring Bay Council.
