TO CELEBRATE Neighbourhood House Week, Torquay Community House will hold two free workshops next week.<\/p>\n
\u201cWomen\u2019s Financial Education – My Budget\u201d and \u201cThe Value and Importance of Friends\u201d will both be run on May 15.<\/p>\n
Neighbourhood House Week \u2013 marked this year from May 6-12 \u2013 is a nationwide initiative to celebrate the role of community, neighbourhood, resource and learning centres in the community.<\/p>\n
While Torquay Community House does great work year-round, Neighbourhood House Week provides a real opportunity for them to showcase their work and extend their reach to those in the community who may not yet be aware of what their local centre has to offer.<\/p>\n
This year\u2019s theme is \u201cBringing People Together: from your neighbourhood to your nation\u201d.<\/p>\n
Faciltated by Jan Cheatley, \u201cThe Value and Importance of Friendship\u201d workshop from 10.30am will celebrate this theme by sharing how to make, maintain and nurture friends and the social connections which are vital to life expectancy and our health.<\/p>\n
In the \u201cWomen\u2019s Financial Education \u2013 My Budget\u201d workshop led by Kirby Smith from Women\u2019s Financial Education, which runs from 1-3pm, you will create a budget and banking structure you can manage.<\/p>\n
Torquay Community House will also have a roving tea trolley and all their regular activities going on during Neighbourhood House Week so whether you\u2019re an old friend of the house or new to the area, it\u2019s the perfect time to visit your Community House.<\/p>\n
