Brimbank council is seeking community members to establish a new group to promote community inclusion and wellbeing.
The aim of the social inclusion action group (SIAG) is to bring together diverse groups of people to support local initiatives that focus on social inclusion, wellbeing and mental health, according to council.
The group will meet regularly to identify needs and support initiatives to increase social connection and belonging.
Council is seeking expressions of interest from residents with lived experience, people with strong local connections, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and members of culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) communities.
Council said those joining the group will also gain new skills, access professional development and will be compensated for their time.
Expressions of interest are open until Tuesday, October 21.
