Fighting to help While the closure of gyms across Victoria has been a dificult pill to swallow for many, it has brought a local group of boxers closer together. The HITFIT Boxing gym in Melton has been closed for nearly two months now, but since offering online classes the community has banded together to help each other. Gym owner Darcy Ellis said it had been inspiring to see. “The silver lining of this whole situation has been seeing how quickly people have adapted, and also seeing everyone sticking together through this tough time,” Mr Ellis said. “We’ve had people donating pieces of itness equipment, or hand sanitiser and toilet paper, just whatever others in the gym community needed to get by.” While some of the restrictions are starting to ease, Mr Ellis said the gym would likely continue to offer online classes for some time. “We’ve all been able to support each other through this and that will continue once we get through this. It’s more than just a gym now, it’s like a little village.” Ewen McRae

Cash splash for schools By Ewen McRae A multi-million dollar investment is set to boost education across Melton. he state government last week announced that Staughton College and Exford Primary School would both beneit from upgraded facilities and general improvements, while a new primary school will be built at Bridge Road in Melton. he new school, which will open in 2022, will provide places for 525 students. Staughton College was the big winner of the funding announcement, with the government

providing $5.85 million for an extension of the school gym and refurbishment of classrooms. his is in addition to $650,000 already promised in this year’s state budget. Melton MP Steve McGhie said the upgrades were important for the school community and would also help create local jobs. “his investment will upgrade our schools, create thousands of jobs and help our economy recover from coronavirus,” Mr McGhie said. “We’re investing record funding in education so all people in Melton, regardless of their background or circumstances, get a world-class education.”

Exford Primary School will receive $2.4 million to upgrade its water and sewerage site services, and will also replace old relocatable buildings with new permanent classrooms. Melton mayor Lara Carli said the investment was vital as the Melton community continued to grow, and she was hopeful future announcements would help the west. “With such a fast-growing population, increased provision of, and investment in, education facilities has long been a top advocacy priority for council,” Cr Carli said. “We commend the Victorian government on this signiicant funding package, which

will see the delivery of much-needed projects, stimulate the economy, and create jobs at such a critical time. “We look forward to receiving further details and are hopeful that additional transformational projects including the Western Rail Plan, Melton Hospital, Western Highway and Melton Highway upgrades, form part of the next stage of this economic recovery package. “hese projects will not only help the economy get back on its feet but will help transform Melbourne’s west into a thriving and diverse economic centre of the future.”

we’re doing what we can to help - Lara Carli receive a current welfare payment will be eligible to apply, while alternative evidence of inancial hardship will also be considered. Melton mayor Lara Carli said it was important the council helped those residents experiencing hardship during such a tough time. “We understand that some people in our community are facing inancial hardship as result of the COVID-19 crisis, and this is

something council has taken into account in considering rates payments,” she said. “By introducing these support measures, we’re doing what we can to help inanciallyafected individuals, families, and businesses manage what is an incredibly challenging time. “Your rates help fund roads, leisure and community centres, children’s programs, care services, parks, footpaths, library books, and so much more. “his response will ensure we can continue to deliver these important programs and services while making things a little easier on those ratepayers most impacted at this time.”

Pub parma still in demand he Bacchus Marsh community loves a chicken parma. With the humble pub parma a rarity these days ater pubs closed their doors several weeks ago, one Bacchus Marsh pub has seen an extraordinary uptake of their new takeaway service, with the parma leading the way. Stoney’s Club in Maddingley began ofering a takeaway menu as a way of generating some business during the coronavirus lockdown, but venue manager Rachel Lewis said she has been amazed by the response from the community. “I would never have thought the pub and

hospitality sector would ever be shut down, so we had to modify our business,” Ms Lewis said. “We mainly did it to stay connected to our members and the local community, and we weren’t sure what to expect. I think we’ve sold 1100 parmas since the start of April, and I think we’ve had 1300 orders all up, so that’s amazing support from the local community.” Ms Lewis said she underestimated just how much people missed heading down to their local pub for a feed and she planned to make the takeaway portion of their menu a permanent feature once the venue was back to normal.

“he support for local business all over Bacchus Marsh has been great to see,” she said. “We’ve had people tell us how much it means to them to have this service around, and being able to help people out with food for a special occasion, or just an easy meal on a weeknight, has been really important. “his was always a temporary measure to bring this in, but it’s been so successful we’d be crazy to not still provide this service to the locals when we re-open for patrons.”

he number of coronavirus cases in Moorabool and Melton remains steady. As of Sunday, there were three known cases in Moorabool, one remained active. Of the 40 cases detected in Melton since the virus began, six remain active. While a McDonald’s restaurant in Melton South was recently closed for deep cleaning ater a delivery driver tested positive for the virus, no cases were discovered at the store. In Victoria, there were 1603 conirmed COVID-19 cases, as of Sunday. It comes as Premier Daniel Andrews announced a further wind back on some restrictions. From June 1, libraries, youth centres and other community facilities will be able to open with no more than 20 people in a single area, plus those needed to operate the space. Swimming pools can open with limits of 20 people and additional safety requirements in place. Community sporting activities will be permitted with up to 20 people in undivided spaces, provided the sport is outdoors, non-competition, non-contact, and people can play 1.5 metres apart. Weddings will be allowed 20 guests, plus the celebrant and couple – and up to 50 people will be allowed at a funerals. Campgrounds and caravan parks will be re-opened – but not with communal facilities such as kitchens or bathrooms. he Premier said if community transmission rates remain low and testing rates remain high, the government would look to further relax restrictions from June 22.

If we keep working from home and we limit the number of us moving around, we can keep kicking a footy in the park. If we use common sense and keep our distance, we can visit cafes and restaurants.

A budget to help the community By Ewen McRae Moorabool council has pledged to provide additional support for residents afected by the ongoing pandemic in its 2020-21 budget. Council last week endorsed the drat budget for community consultation, giving locals the chance to have their say. Ater considering applying no rate increase for the next inancial year, council last week endorsed a two per cent rate rise. However council said it would commit to “allocating an amount at least equivalent to the revenue generated from a two per cent

rate increase to help those in the community most impacted by the efects of the COVID-19 pandemic.” Measures put in place by council to help those afected by the pandemic include an extension of rate payments to September 30, 2020 with no interest; the implementation of a speciic COVID-19 Financial Hardship Policy

to provide inancial relief to residents and businesses who need it the most; payment of local suppliers weekly to improve business cash low; and waived rent/hire fees for occupiers of council buildings that have been forced to close. Mayor David Edwards said he believed the drat budget struck the right balance. “It’s very pleasing to see the drat budget has made provision for those who most need help during this time, as should be the case,” Cr Edwards said. “he three main components for me that come out of this budget are: Targeted relief for

those who need it during this time of global pandemic, providing jobs in challenging times, and delivering infrastructure now and into the future. “I think this drat budget ticks the boxes for the above three criteria, and we as councillors are keen to hear what the community think.” he budget also includes a capital works program totalling $27.609 million, including the Ballan Recreation Reserve Pavilion ($3.25 million), the Bacchus Marsh Indoor Recreation Facility ($2.6 million), and stage one of construction on the Ballan Depot ($1.75 million).

Back to school Adrian Mois never thought he’d be excited to be walking into school, but as he and his twin brother Benjamin walked through the gates of Caroline Chisholm Catholic College this morning, that was the overwhelming emotion. Since the beginning of term two, most children across the state have been learning remotely in a bid to slow the spread of COVID-19. But from today, all prep, grade one and grade two pupils, specialist school students, as well as VCE and VCAL students will return to on-site learning at government schools. Students from the year 3 to 10 cohort will continue to learn remotely until Tuesday, June 9. Adrian said the prospect of returning to the classroom was something he’s been looking forward to.

“I’ve never really said this, but I’m excited,” he said. “It’s been eight weeks so it’ll be great to see everyone and talk to my friends I haven’t seen in a couple of months.” While year 12 is stressful at the best of times, Adrian said the transition to remote learning was a relatively smooth one. “Luckily for me I’m doing VCAL so there’s no stress with exams, but it’s been diferent. “It wasn’t bad going onto online classrooms, but everyone misses the physical classroom … the environment, the people, everything.” Tate Papworth Brothers Benjamin and Adrian Mois are excited about the return to school.

Locking people up in lats and houses will also have consequences.

Business connections improving With COVID-19 restrictions on business beginning to ease across the state, hundreds of Melton businesses are ready to get moving again. he council-run Venture Melton Business Network has boomed in 2020, especially since the coronavirus pandemic set in. According to Melton council, more than 600 local businesses have joined up to the network, making it one of the most connected and supported business communities in Victoria. Council has been ofering free membership to the network recently as a way of helping the local economy. Mentoring and training, webinars and updates on Melton business initiatives are among the beneits for members. Melton mayor Lara Carli said it was rewarding to see so many professionals in the

network making the most of the resources. “We now have more diverse ideas, opinions and experiences from so many diferent business owners. It’s strengthening networking and learning opportunities like never before,” Cr Carli said. “To share ideas and insights with professionals outside of your own business is so valuable, and that’s exactly why we created the Venture Melton Business Network. “We’ve seen local businesses grow, challenge themselves, be inspired by others and achieve so much more by connecting with each other and challenging themselves. “Now more than ever, we want as many local businesses to beneit from the Venture Melton Business Network and continue to thrive.” To boost support for businesses during the

COVID-19 pandemic, council has also added more online services for network members including tips on adapting to disruption, digital customer experience, as well as connecting members via their Facebook group. he free mentoring service has also been popular, with business owners getting support from industry experts to work through any issues they’ve been experiencing. In addition, council’s own economic development oicers have been contacting businesses directly to better understand and respond to their needs, and to connect them to support programs across all levels of government.

Elections to go ahead Victorian local government elections will go ahead in October despite a Municipal Association of Victoria push to postpone elections until next year. Residents will cast their votes for the October 24 elections via “safe and secure” postal votes ater the state’s chief health oicer Brett Sutton advised the state government it was safe for postal elections to proceed. To ensure local elections are safe and adhere to social distancing requirements, longer candidate statements will be allowed in the Victorian Electoral Commission Voter Information packs and guidance will be available on suitable and safe campaigning methods. Local Government Minister Adem Somyurek said 2020 marked the irst year postal voting would be used across all Victorian councils. “By making sure every vote is a postal vote, we’re ensuring this vital democratic process is conducted in a safe manner that also allows for the participation of more voters,” he said. Earlier this month, MAV president Coral Ross called for the elections to be postponed for 12 months. She said a deferral was necessary with COVID-19 restrictions in place. “Given the economic implications of coronavirus for councils, it is critical that councils say focused on organisational recovery and future planning rather than election campaigning,” she said.

Fatal crash investigated

The hertiage-listed Avenue of Honour could be subjected to hundreds of trucks carrying toxic soil travelling along it daily. (Supplied)

Toxic threat to Avenue By Ewen McRae Moorabool council is calling for the area’s local heritage to be strongly considered when any decision is made about where to dump toxic soil from the West Gate Tunnel project. he council says the 281 elms that line the heritage-listed Bacchus Marsh Avenue of Honour would be subjected to hundreds of trucks using the avenue daily if Maddingley Brown Coal is given the green light to accept the soil. he elms were planted in 1918 as a living memorial to those from the region who served in World War 1. Council last week called on the planning minister, Richard Wynne, to consult with RSL

Victoria, Heritage Victoria and the National Trust of Australia to ensure the avenue was protected. Mayor David Edwards said the Avenue of Honour was of enormous signiicance to the town, region and Victoria, attracting many visitors to Bacchus Marsh. “I am asking that the RSL, Heritage Victoria and the National Trust are consulted prior to any decision being made, to ensure the protection of the Avenue of Honour from truck

movements every six minutes, 24 hours a day, seven days a week,” Cr Edwards said. “he Avenue of Honour was planted to commemorate locals who volunteered to serve in World War 1. As custodians, council must do everything we can to protect the amenity of this very special place.” Maddingley Brown Coal is waiting on a decision from Mr Wynne on whether its planning permit can be amended to allow it to accept, process and store toxic soil from the tunnel project. Mr Wynne is currently considering the proposal from MBC. Sites in Hume and Ravenhall are also understood to be under consideration from West Gate Tunnel developer Transurban to store the soil.

With COVID-19 social restrictions easing, Moorabool residents will soon have even more reasons to get out and stay active. A grant from the state government will help develop a 1000 steps exercise track at Bald Hill, with the project identiied as a key part of the council’s future plans. Council recently announced it had been successful in obtaining a $500,000 grant from Regional Development Victoria (RDV) to help fund the project. Mayor David Edwards said it was great to see the project moving forwards. “We’re delighted the funds for this project have come through,” Cr Edwards said. “Council staf have put in a lot of work to come up with a concept for creating something similar to the 1000 steps in the Dandenongs. “We’ll use the existing walking trail on Bald Hill but create a place for exercise, recreation, potentially art spaces – we have great plans for the area that will attract locals and visitors.” he grant will be used to begin the consultation process which will inform the design of the project, ahead of a potential construction start date of late 2021. “Council will consult with local landowners, the wider community and key stakeholders, and from that, we’ll have an idea of what’s possible and what people would like to see in the space,” Cr Edwards said. “We’re very excited about transforming Bald Hill into an attractive tourist destination and we thank RDV for kick-starting the project.” An artist impression of the future Bald Hill 1000 steps.

Footy’s new world By Ewen McRae he familiar sounds of football will soon be ringing out on ovals across the west, but it won’t be quite how you remember it. AFL Victoria recently gave the all clear for local clubs to return to training from May 25, however contact work is still prohibited, and clubs must train their players in groups of no more than 10 and at opposite ends of the oval. It’s a tentative irst step back to hopefully playing games, but how are local clubs coping with designing a training program for a contact sport when no contact is allowed? In the Essendon District Football League, Keilor coach Mick McGuane said it would take some getting used to, but it was an important move. “I think it’s fantastic that we’re back,” he said. “I think it’s just what most people in society need, to be able to play sport, so I can’t wait to get going. “It will be challenging no doubt, but if we’re any chance of getting a season going this micro-group training is something we’re just going to have to get used to.” Keilor will have training groups running most nights of the week in order to accommodate all their mens, women’s and junior sides. Under the current parameters from AFL Victoria, clubs can have two groups of ten players on an oval, but the groups cannot interact and social distancing of 1.5 metres must be observed at all times.

Council will receive a $2.5 million state government grant as part of the new Working for Victoria initiative, which will result in an additional 51 staf for up to six months at Moorabool council. he initiative is designed to assist local governments to employ jobseekers, including people who have lost their jobs as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, in roles that support the community. Working for Victoria has partnered with Sidekicker to deliver an online platform to link council with applicants. Moorabool chief executive Derek Madden said council is focusing on recruiting for roles which are needed to provide critical services across the region to ensure that it can respond to local community needs during the COVID-19 pandemic. “he 51 jobs we are looking to ill are very varied, and include roles such as general labouring, and administrative and project roles,” Mr Madden said. “he extra work being done will help council deliver better outcomes and services for our community, so is a real win-win situation.” Recruitment for the roles commenced last week.

I think it’s fantastic that we’re back - Mick McGuane

Tackling, bumping and marking contests are prohibited, and change rooms are unable to be used. Each club must also appoint a COVID safety oicer to undertake government training and ensure all these and other measures are being adhered to. In the Western Region Football League, Wyndhamvale coach Chris Moreland said ater a losing division three grand inal efort in 2019 his side was simply happy to get the ball back in their hands. “I think every footballer in Australia is happy to get back to training,” Moreland said. “It’s a new situation for everyone, but we’re itching to get back now. We ended last year on a pretty bad note, so we’re chasing that redemption and hopefully we get that chance. “We’ll listen to the experts and do everything right as a footy club.” In division one, seven-time defending champions Deer Park will return to the track this week, but coach Marc Bullen said the changes would be a new test. “It’s very challenging,” Bullen said. “You throw out a red Sherrin and 10 people will want to touch it, so trying to get those 10 people to train while social distancing is going to be very challenging. “But in saying that I want to see footy return and we’re hopeful more than anything that that can happen.” While returning to training is one thing, a start of some sort of premiership season is another issue entirely, with no word yet from AFL Victoria on whether a season start date is likely. Any start to a season is likely to be without crowds, putting additional pressure on clubs to generate revenue from gate takings or a canteen. McGuane said despite some drawbacks, a return to playing had to be a priority for local clubs. “I think we still have time to get a season underway at the back end of July, inishing in October,” he said. “We’ve got to be optimistic and positive and I think it’s a great opportunity to galvanise your club and your supporters. “A lot of people have been doing it tough, but sport gives you that outlet and it’s important for mental and physical wellbeing, and we want to make sure we give everyone that wants to be

involved in sport an opportunity to reconnect. “It’s an opportunity for clubs to look at themselves and see if they’ve become too reliant on certain income streams and maybe there’s a better way of operating.” However Bullen said if fans were barred from attending games, he would favour scrapping the season. “We want that pot of gold at the end of the rainbow that if we start training that we can get back to playing,” he said. “Having said that if there’s no crowds there’s no football in my opinion, it’s as simple as that. “We play football to be around your mates and to give back to the volunteers and your

supporters, so it’s just not viable to play without fans.” For Moreland, a return to play would come down to individual players making their own call, including giving up their playing wages. “You never say never,” he said. “It can deinitely happen, it’s just about inding grounds and avoiding a second wave of the virus, but I think it comes down to the love of the game and if you love it enough you might have to sacriice a bit of coin to make it happen. “Some guys are on massive money and some are on nothing, but if you’re passionate about playing you’ll do what you can to get out there and run around.”

he Caroline Springs Scouts might not be able to meet in person, but that hasn’t stopped them keeping the participants active. he group, which is celebrating it’s 10 year anniversary, has continued to operate throughout the statewide lockdown, with weekly online meetings for its 200 members. Group leader Claire Mouser said it was important members of all ages and their families stayed connected and helped each other through the current situation. “We believe Victorian families – especially young people – need support at this time,” Ms Mouser said. “Many young people are missing the social interaction they enjoyed through school and sport, but scouting can ill the gap. “Our volunteer leaders and youth members are running online meetings [and] we’ve also held an overnight backyard camp with the Joeys (5-7 year olds) and Cubs (8 - 11 year olds) – all connected online.” he group won’t be letting its special birthday celebrations go by without acknowledgement either, and is encouraging more locals to come and join in the fun when they are able. “With our 10th birthday coming up, the leadership team are busy preparing a virtual group camp at home for all our youth, leaders and families,” Ms Mouser said. “We continue to raise funds online through the annual Scout Monster Rale and are very excited to plan for our return to outdoor scouting. “It is a great time for new families to check out scouting as Scouts Victoria has scrapped membership fees till March 2021.” Ewen McRae 9 MELTON & MOORABOOL STAR WEEKLY Tuesday, 26 May, 2020

We understand that some people in our community are facing financial hardship as result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and this is something Council has taken into account in considering rates payments. To make things easier on those ratepayers most impacted, we have introduced a waiver of $200 for the fourth quarter 2019/20 rates instalment to eligible ratepayers.

Under the Building Works package, two new primary schools will be built – Bridge Road Primary School in Strathtulloh and Grasslands Primary School in Deanside. Exford Primary School will receive water and sewerage upgrades, in addition to the previously announced construction of new permanent classrooms. And in Melton, the Staughton College gym will be extended and classrooms refurbished. These projects will not only provide quality education opportunities for local students, they will stimulate the economy, and create jobs at such a critical time.

No chance to say goodbye Star Weekly reporter Esther Lauaki has returned home to New Zealand for a family emergency. Her dad died while she was in isolation under the country’s strict quarantine rules. his is her story. Nothing could have prepared me for losing a parent – particularly in a pandemic. From the safety of my Melbourne home earlier this year, I felt far removed from the heartbreaking news stories out of COVID-19 epicentres such as Europe and the US echoing the words “everybody dies alone”. Until, on May 11, my wonderful dad Iakopo Lauaki died in an Auckland hospital ater a long battle with a rare blood cancer. He wasn’t alone. He slipped away peacefully with my mum and wife of 45 years, Faaiuga, by his side. My family now knows well the sting, and sometimes cruelty, of COVID-19 restrictions in place to slow the spread of the virus. he universal rules in post-COVID countries, including New Zealand and Australia, stipulate that no visitors are permitted to hospitals and fewer than 10, if any at all, are allowed at funerals. But doctors at the hospital made an exception allowing one visitor in my dad’s inal days. My three siblings hadn’t seen my dad for weeks before he died. Despite an application to the health ministry for early release from the mandatory 14 day lockdown in a government-managed hotel to be with my dad – I ultimately missed a inal goodbye too. A day ater my dad died, 10 days into quarantine, my application for early release was approved on compassionate grounds and I was reunited with my family to plan and attend his funeral. Planning within the restraints of COVID rules presents a unique set of challenges. Traditional Samoan funerals are usually a week-long afair with hundreds of mourners exchanging gits of money, handmade mats and food. Samoans grieve collectively with their loved ones and my father would have laid in state at our home where a steady stream of relatives could pay respects, sing hymns and tell stories. In stark contrast, my father’s send-of was 12 MELTON & MOORABOOL STAR WEEKLY Tuesday, 26 May, 2020

he chapel was sterilised before and ater the service and guests were signed in at the door. A digital communications strategy, including Facebook posts, group emails and online live-streaming, made it possible for extended family and friends to attend the inal farewell

service virtually. On paper, strict COVID rules are the reason New Zealand and Australia are now able to lit restrictions and awaken their economies slowly and safely. In practice, I feel I will never be prepared to embrace this “new normal”.

It takes an army Each May, volunteers from the Salvation Army hit the streets of Melbourne with donation tins to raise money for the annual Red Shield Appeal. But the coronavirus crisis has forced this year’s doorknock online, writes Laura Michell. he annual appeal is the Salvation Army’s main fundraiser, with donations going towards the organisation’s social and community services. Craigieburn Salvation Army captain Pete Brookshaw says the Salvos made the decision to hold a digital fundraiser this year because the COVID-19 pandemic meant volunteers wouldn’t be unable to door knock or collect donations at shopping centres and key intersections. He is urging anyone who is able to make a donation to do so online. “he Salvation Army always lends a hand to the most vulnerable in our community, so even though these are diicult times, our aim is to ofer hope and support to people in need,” he says. “Right now, we are working with our local community, as we have always done, to ensure that we leave no one in need.” he Salvation Army runs a number of initiatives to support the Craigieburn community, including a breakfast program at four schools, community lunches, a food van, and welfare services. Mr Brookshaw estimates that the Craigieburn Salvos served 20,000 cheese toasties to school children last year. He says the demand for help has increased each week as more people begin to experience inancial pressure as a result of the pandemic. “Our welfare service is busier than ever. “We have new people accessing our service who have not done so before. We welcome anyone who is in need to give us a call as this is a diicult time for people.” he Wyndham Salvation Army is experiencing a similar surge in demand for help. Captains Phill and Catherine Abram and their team of volunteers have been providing emergency relief, food, and assistance in paying bills to anyone who reaches out for help. he Wyndham Salvos are also providing takeaway lunches every Tuesday, Wednesday

and hursday instead of their traditional community meals. “It’s all hands on deck for us. We’re an essential service,” Mrs Abram says. “We have been doing online [food] vouchers for people who access our support and don’t have transport. “We are seeing people who have never had to access services before, they have never been on welfare before – it is an unknown for them.” Mrs Abrams says the Red Shield Appeal is more important this year than ever before. “More than ever, we need people’s continued generosity,” she says. “We are struggling as a lot of our income

source is from our op shop, which is not open. “Even if everybody gave $2, what a diference that would make. We are really calling for every community group to get on board, as well as individuals.” According to Salvation Army Lieutenant Star Conlife, the Red Shield Appeal allows the Salvos to target their support programs to meet the needs of their local community. Ms Conlife says the Hobsons Bay Salvos used money raised last year to construct a small food trailer to help out with their food relief program. While construction of the trailer was put on

hold as a result of COVID-19, the Salvos are hopeful it will be up and running soon. Ms Conlife says social distancing has forced the Hobsons Bay Salvation Amry to rethink how it ofers support to the community. She says all support services have changed to no contact, while a weekly soup van service has morphed into a meal delivery service that provides food to about 50 people each week. “By being lexible, we have been able to help more people.” To donate to the Red Shield Appeal, visit, https://digitaldoorknock.salvationarmy.org. au/ and search for your local Salvos. 13 MELTON & MOORABOOL STAR WEEKLY Tuesday, 26 May, 2020

Come Back Stronger! Dear local business partners, The Coronavirus has triggered a major economic shock, and local businesses are doing it tough. However, throughout history when transformational shocks to the economy occur, they always create opportunity too. In times of crisis, we need to push panic aside and make calm, clearheaded decisions – and look for OPPORTUNITY! • The JobKeeper and JobSeeker payments will assist in supporting the local economy. • Initial surveys show much of this stimulus money will be spent locally. • Restrictions are slowly easing, so expect consumers to be more active. • The restrictions have created pent up consumer demand across our region. • Demand for local consumer goods and services is likely to be higher than normal, given continued severe restrictions in other sectors. • For some, this could provide a greater opportunity to spend. There is plenty of opportunity! And the businesses that are most proactive will seize it. It may seem counter-intuitive, but there has never been a better or more important time to work on your next marketing move. Our team can help you engage with thousands of locals through our printed and digital newspapers, news websites, social channels and provide tools to enhance your online presence! Now is the time to plan and act! We’re ready to help businesses design and implement marketing campaigns that tap into local opportunities. No obligation, just trusted advice!
