Women from across rural, regional and remote NSW can register now for the revamped 30th annual Rural Women\u2019s Gathering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The milestone event was moved from August to the weekend of the 25 and 26 November 2023 to take advantage of the warmer weather, as it returns to the home of the first gathering in Orange.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The theme of this year\u2019s gathering is ’30 years, still going strong and getting stronger’, and provides rural women with support, information and skills to address the myriad challenges they face living in a rural location in Australia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The new-look event is set to bring women together to hear from and connect with inspirational women in sport, health and business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is also a valuable opportunity for women to share their insights and ideas for their communities with key decision makers in the NSW Government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Opening the event will be NSW Minister for Women Jodie Harrison.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Keynote speakers include Australian Rugby Union Player Grace Hamilton and ABC News rural reporter Sarah Hawke, who both hail from Orange. Joining them is founder of The Rural Naturopath, Hayley Dawson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The gathering is an annual state-wide, community-run event and includes a diverse program of speakers, display stands, workshops, networking and a gala dinner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The event is hosted by Australian National Field Days and organised by a committee of volunteers, with support from the NSW Government\u2019s Rural Women\u2019s Network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tickets are $80 and limited, so register now at the NSW Women’s Gathering websitelaunch<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n NSW Minister for Regional NSW and Agriculture Moriarty said:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWomen in our rural communities are doing extraordinary things. The Rural Women\u2019s Gathering is the perfect space to share their experiences, and in turn help other women to better support their communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI am already looking forward to celebrating rural women\u2019s achievements and seeing everything that\u2019s on offer at the relaunch of this exciting new look event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cOver the last 30 years the gathering has brought women together to share experiences, learn and support one another and I urge women to register now to make sure they don\u2019t miss out.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n NSW Minister for Women Jodie Harrison said:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cOur regional communities have seen more than their fair share of challenges over the past year, but they have never lost their spirit. Regional women continue to show resilience, strength and a sense of pride in where they come from.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWe are mindful of the increasing pressures of cost of living, so we have worked hard to keep ticket prices as low as possible. I think we have put together a great weekend of activities for regional women to enjoy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI\u2019m looking forward to attending the relaunched Rural Women\u2019s Gathering, my first as the Minister for Women, and excited to meet amazing women from across the regions and hear their stories and vision for the future.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Women from across rural, regional and remote NSW can register now for the revamped 30th annual Rural Women\u2019s Gathering.
