  • A tailored, in-person training session for your team, delivered by Volunteering Victoria.
  • Free hire of a Council-run community room for one occasion, ideal for meetings, workshops, or celebrations (subject to availability and standard venue conditions).

Frankston City Council is committed to continually improving how we support our local community groups.

Our Community Groups Annual Survey helps us understand how local community groups are going and how we can better support you through Council programs.

Your feedback will directly inform the planning for support, training and resources. Let us know what matters the most to your organisation.
