Sharing Stories
Edmund Rice Community Services, have been consulting with the City of Melton residents about their perceptions and lived experiences of crime and safety. Collectively, we have been weaving together ideas for strategies and solutions to prevent crime. Weaving activities have taken place across the municipality to gather residents and have these community conversations and some of these stories will be shared at the fair. If you live or work in the Melton municipality there is an opportunity for you or a group you are are involved with to enjoy and share in one of these weaving sessions.
