At its General Meeting held on Tuesday 24 September 2024, Council:
Other updates from the General Meeting include:
selectability, one of North Queensland's largest NDIS providers of mental health and suicide prevention services, is planning to establish a Bike Shed in Ingham.
The Bike Shed will offer a community space for bike related activities like group rides, repair workshops, and social gatherings over coffee, all aimed at enhancing mental wellbeing. Bikes will be provided for those in need, and participation is free.
A survey is currently open to gather community input, which will support selectability's application for funding through the Queensland Mental Health Commission's Mental Health and Wellbeing Grant.
Consolidated survey results will be presented to the Commission as part of the application.
To take part in the survey, please visit https://bit.ly/4dsAkVp.

Calling all regional and remote Queensland creatives, collectives, and small business owners!
The Regional Place Activation Program Expression of Interest is now open.
Hinchinbrook is currently negotiating to activate vacant spaces as part of our ‘DIY’ Renew Projects.
Have you got a creative idea you’d love to showcase?
Part of a community group or collective eager to bring events back to the main street?
A small business owner in search of a shopfront?
While the Renew model offers a rent free space, you must consider the additional costs and commitments associated with running a creative space in a Renew Project.
Each space is offered on a 30 day rolling licence which means you must be quick to activate the space, take a risk, use your imagination and consider how best to present your idea with minimal permanent fit out and maximum creativity.
For further information or to apply, please visit https://bit.ly/3BpHzQF.
The Regional Place Activation Program is a Queensland Small Business Commissioner's Office and Renew Australia partnership.
The Department of Environment, Science and Innovation are inviting experienced operators to partner with the Bandjin and Girramay peoples, Traditional Owners of Hinchinbrook Island National Park, to provide four-day, three-night guided tours along the Thorsborne Trail.
This exclusive opportunity offers a cultural and immersive hiking experience, with group camping access along the trail.
Operators must demonstrate environmental and cultural competence and experience working with First Nations communities.
Expressions of Interest close 4.00pm Tuesday 15 November 2024.
