Workshops

Making a Difference Made Easy Webinar

Making a Difference Made Easy (In-Person or Online)

This workshop provides participants with a clear understanding of poverty in WA and then introduces simple, practical ways to take action.  Both the online and in person workshops are supported with resources (see Your Guide To Doing Local Good below) to continue the conversation, reflect and take meaningful steps in your own place.

Workplace Poverty Workshop

Power of a Postcard Workshop (In-Person or Online)

This hands-on workshop helps participants explore poverty and advocacy in a supportive, engaging space, either online or in-person. After learning about the issues and discussing collective action, you can take part in a small exercise that puts your learning into practice - writing a message to a local MP via our No Place for Poverty postcards. We gather up the postcards at the end and handle all of the posting, making it a simple but impactful action.
