The survey will be running for the next week only - so if you haven't already given us your thoughts, please click on the link below!
We are conducting a survey asking for your views on how Beechworth Sustainability is running, and how it should be managed going forward. For instance - should we become a formal group? Should we merge with Beechworth Landcare?
We would also like to know what you think about the events and activities that have been held so far, as well as your ideas for future events, and the sustainability topics you are interested in.
The survey will only take about 5 minutes to complete so please grab a cuppa, click on the link below and give us your views:
