Community Workshop

While we are building the Snowy 2.0 Transmission Connection, our team are living and working alongside the Tumbarumba community.  Making a positive contribution during the project, and leaving a lasting legacy is an important part of our work.  

Part of our commitment to the Tumbarumba community is to provide funding to a selection of community organisations for projects that will provide tangible benefits to the Tumbarumba community. Find out more here

We will be hosting a Community Investment Workshop in Tumbarumba on the 21st August 2024. The purpose of the workshop is for people from Tumbarumba to come together, hear about community projects seeking funding from Lumea, and to have a say in priorities for funding.  

Through conversation, outreach and engagement with the Tumbarumba community, we have identified four investment themes:

  • Community connection
  • Care for country
  • Emergency response and preparation
  • Economic growth and tourism

The opportunity in this workshop is for community groups to put forward projects that will help the Tumbarumba community thrive. This community investment process is aimed at breaking down the competitive mindset that we often see in traditional grant making processes, bringing communities together to talk about projects, priorities and supporting community groups to propose a package of work that is supported and can be actioned by Lumea. 

The details

Where and when: 5.30pm on 21st August 2024 at the Tumbarumba Bowling Club. Tea, coffee and a light supper will be provided. We anticipate finishing at 8pm. 

Bring your kids: There will be space for kids to come along and play/eat while parents are involved in the workshop.
