Membership
The success of any community group depends on the strength of its membership. We believe that a client run service should not work in isolation and that it is vitally important to actively seek feedback from relevant sectors of the community the service is operating in. So we encourage our clients, family members, friends, staff, and, anyone who is interested in the disability and aged care work of our organisation, to become a member.
Currently we have about 180 members supporting our work and it’s great to know that people want to be involved!
Why become a member?
The main benefit of membership is to have the opportunity to make rewarding and valued contributions to the strategic direction of the Association. Other benefits include:
- Voting rights at general meetings
- Rights to notice of meetings and to attend certain meetings to have a say
- The right to submit items of business for consideration at general meetings and to be heard at general meetings
- The right to nominate to hold a formal role on the Management Committee
- Access to regular communications through our e-newsletter ‘Touchpoint’
- Invitation to attend the member’s Christmas Party
