What we’re doing
We’re helping the community by supporting projects that increase community participation and wellbeing.
Capel Youth Leadership Camp
The Capel Youth Leadership Camp took place on Wednesday 4th January to Friday 6th January. It was held at the Swan Valley Adventure Centre in Middle Swan. A huge thank you to our key supporter Doral Mineral Sands Mine. Thanks also to our sponsors who were able to provide scholarships for multiple young people, breaking down barriers to participation: South West Women’s Health and Information Centre, CWA WA – Capel Branch, and Don Punch MLA!
The camp was a huge success, with 32 young people engaging in leadership activities, working as a team in the social activities, and challenging themselves in the adventure activities.
The Capel Youth Leadership Camp had four main objectives:
- Increase young peoples’ knowledge of leadership in their communities
- Develop teamwork capabilities and understanding of others
- Increase social connections for young people to make new friends, and
- The opportunity for young people to try new things and challenge themselves.
Do you have an idea for a super community event?
Events play an essential role in building connection, belonging and support within our community.
The Shire encourages our community to run events that strengthen and enhance the well-being of our community.
Support is available from our Community Development team to ensure your event is a success.
We have developed a ‘Community Guide – Event Application‘ and ‘Event Application Package‘ to help guide you through the process.
For more information contact (08) 9727 0222 and ask to speak to our Community Development Officer.
