Recap: Grant-ED 101 with BIEDO in Biggenden

Last month I headed to Biggenden with Team BIEDO to facilitate the “Grant-ED 101: Creating a ‘grant ready’ project” workshop for community and small business. It was my first visit to the North Burnett since taking the family to the Gayndah Orange Festival and it didn’t disappoint - we stopped along the way for road side pumpkins and to chat to the crew droving a mob of over 1300 head cattle through the region (6 months on the road and counting).

The workshop attracted small business owners, volunteers from community groups and representatives from the not-for-profit sector who traveled from around the North and South Burnett and as far as Bundaberg to attend - a big thank you to those who attended and to BIEDO for inviting me to take part.
