WIN a $200 gift card to put towards your Neighbour Day event!

Celebrate your local neighbourhood this Neighbour Day by hosting a community event in the spirit of social connection. The theme for Neighbour Day in 2023 is “Create Belonging” – a call to action to individuals, community groups, business and governments to take everyday actions that create social connection and foster respectful relationships.

There are many different ways to participate in Neighbour Day, whether it’s big or small – it all contributes to building respectful relationships, sustainable connections and reducing loneliness in our communities. You can organise an event on your own or work with a group of neighbours. Decide what is manageable for you.

Southern Downs Regional Council is giving you the opportunity to win a $200 Woolies Essentials Gift Card to enhance your Neighbour Day event.

Be sure to register your event on the Neighbour Day website to access lots of FREE resources to assist you with your event.

Jointly funded by the Australian and Queensland governments under the Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements.
