Heartbeat #7 – Showcase, Celebrate, Evolve
Published on 16 May 2023
The Grit and Resilience program are excited to be hosting Heartbeat #7- Showcase, Celebrate, Evolve on Wednesday 7 June 2023 from 5.30pm - 8.00pm, at the Wangaratta Performing Arts and Convention Centre.
Heartbeat #7 is a FREE event bringing together community members who are working in partnership on Grit and Resilience activities to showcase the amazing feats and celebrate the outcomes achieved by the Grit and Resilience Program over the last few years.
“This will also be a fantastic opportunity to learn how you can become involved as the Program evolves into the future,” said Bek Nash-Webster, Program Coordinator.
“The incredible Kerrie Hicks from Gritential Coaching is our guest speaker. Kerrie has strong ties with our Wangaratta community having served the community for Victoria Police for 20 years including some time as the Local Area Commander.”
“In 2021 Kerrie spent time working as a Team Leader and Investigator for the United Nations in Iraq, before returning to Australia and establishing Gritential Coaching. She uses this new platform to empower people to harness their grit, realise their potential, and live their lives to the fullest.”
Community members, organisations, and businesses are invited to an evening of celebration at the Wangaratta Performing Arts and Convention Centre where the Grit and Resilience Program achieved to date will be showcased and the community will share ideas about how to best build community connection and inclusion, and support mental health wellbeing as the program evolves into the future.
“The June 2023 Heartbeat #7 is an opportunity for everyone, individuals, families and organisations to get involved in the Grit and Resilience Program. In June 2022 the community told us to continue the Heartbeat model into the future so that Program updates could be communicated and discussed in person while making community connections and having fun,” said Nash-Webster.
“We want everyone to get on board, so join us for some light refreshments, great entertainment from Project365 and Jazy Jade Music and an evening of connectedness!”
