Working to create a connected and respectful Tasmania

Celebrating 75 Years in 75 Places

We believe that connection and respect are the building blocks of thriving Tasmanian communities, that’s why we’ve set ourselves the vision of: ‘A Connected and Respectful Tasmania’.

In our milestone 75th year, we are embarking on an inspiring mission. By partnering with seventy-five communities across Tasmania, we are asking the question, ‘what is a connected and respectful community to Tasmanians?’

By celebrating 75 years through conversations in 75 places across the state, our hope is to create a Tasmania where every individual is valued, every relationship is nurtured, and every community thrives.

Neighbours Every Day and Healthy Tasmania – Community Grants

We’re very excited to be partnering again with Healthy Tasmania to support and encourage people to connect with their neighbours to increase belonging and minimise loneliness.

We invite local Tasmanian community members, groups and organisations to apply for grants up to $1,500 that can be used to host neighbourly activities in your community.

Keep Tech in Check

In today’s digital age, do you find that you rely heavily on your devices? Do you spend hours scrolling through your feeds?

We get it… our devices are super useful and are essential tools for communication, but did you know they are designed to be highly distracting and addictive which can affect our mental health and overall wellbeing.

Creating healthy digital habits is crucial for minimising these impacts. Simple strategies, such as taking breaks from screens and reconnecting with our surroundings and interacting with people in person, can enhance our wellbeing and relationships.

This project is supported by Healthy Tasmania, an initiative of the Tasmanian Government.
