Melbourne Disability Expo
On the 1st and 2nd of April 2022, the People Outdoors team Sandra, Olivia, Athena and our CEO Rod attended the Melbourne Disability Expo as an exhibitor. It was held at at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre (MCEC). The expo featured over 100 providers promoting their products and services to the community. It was wonderful to meet and network with support coordinators, allied health professionals, families and individuals to promote who we are and what services we offer. We look forward to having new campers, disability support workers and volunteers joining us and contributing further to the growth of People Outdoors. The next expo will be at the Source Kids Expo on the 18th-19th June. We look forward to seeing some of our campers and parents there.
