Community Group Resource Hub
Resources for community groups, sporting clubs and not-for-profit organisations
Community groups, sporting clubs and not-for-profit organisations are at the heart of the Coorong District. They bring people together, create opportunities to participate, support wellbeing and help build strong, connected and resilient communities.
Council recognises that running a successful community organisation takes time, commitment and a wide range of skills. This Resource Hub brings together free practical tools, templates and authoritative Australian and South Australian information to help organisations:
- establish strong foundations
- improve governance and financial management
- recruit, support and retain volunteers
- plan projects and events
- find and manage funding
- understand risk, safety and compliance
- communicate accessibly
- care for community facilities and assets
- create welcoming, healthy and inclusive organisations.
Please note: This page provides general information only. Requirements vary according to an organisation’s structure, activities and circumstances. Seek advice from the relevant regulator, insurer or suitably qualified professional where required.
