Services to Local Government

Michelle consults directly with area leaders and team members within local governments, in order to align presentations with strategic outcomes and priority areas. All of the Bust-a-Burpee workshops meet funding criteria for community inclusion, engagement, and participation.

Michelle facilitates workshops for community, keynote presentations for events, and ongoing mentorship for community organisations. Michelle is also available for consultancy on projects, strategic implementation, proposal and report writing.

Get in touch with Michelle today to see how she can support your local community members, projects and goals.
