We are inviting expressions of interest from established community groups and organisations to actively participate in Council's engagement program.If you are involved in running a community group or organisation on the Central Coast - whether its sport, environmental, community support or something else - we’d like to hear from you. Jump over to our online engagement hub (yourvoiceourcoast.com) to learn more and complete the registration form by 9 July so we can build a central list to better connect with you about relevant opportunities, news and projects.Many of you already have relationships, or speak directly with teams at Council, and that is great!This is not to replace those but to create a whole-of-Council view of who our local community groups are, what you care about and how you prefer to be engaged with. We look forward to hearing from you.
