Ivanhoe community day

Get together in the Ivanhoe community while learning some information about important issues.


Funding from the Australian Government's Future Drought Fund has allowed Rural Connect to put together what promises to be an amazing event.


Where is it you ask? Ivanhoe RSL Club on Columbus Street, Friday March 7 from 9.15 am to 3pm.


Come along, learn new skills and enjoy a fantastic community day.


It will be a fun-filled day of activities, connection, and delicious food!


Savor complimentary morning tea and lunch while diving into engaging interactive sessions tailored for everyone in the community.


Doctor Mia Ciccio and Doctor Meg Withers will be conducting an informative lunch time session on osteopathy and pain management.


There will also be a first aid session, suitable for both children and adults.


Rural Connect is a partnership between the Royal Flying Doctor Service and Contact.


​While separate services, Royal Flying Doctor Service South Eastern Section (RFDS SE) and Contact are working towards finding ways to address health and wellbeing needs for isolated children, families, and community in an outback, remote area service delivery context. 

RuralCONNECT is the resulting Contact and RFDS SE partnership ‘product’ working towards health and wellbeing outcomes for remote and isolated outback children, young people, and their families. 

To date, RuralCONNECT’s focus has been upon north-western NSW regions encompassing the small villages of Louth, Tilpa and Wanaaring and surrounding regions. 

A shared approach with families and the community forms the basis of all RuralCONNECT actions
