7-week intensive event management training for a new event organiser

About

Hike to Heal Australia is a not for profit suicide prevention organisation inspiring communities to strengthen wellbeing while walking beside people dealing with mental ill health and suicide loss towards hope, healing and connection.

Hike to Heal’s Scavenger Hike in Toowoomba is an interactive hiking event for all levels of fitness and hiking experience. Hikers have fun following clues in Mt Peel Nature Reserve (or their chosen nature destination) to find natural treasures and solve riddles as they walk along.

7-week intensive event management training

In late 2022, Linda Barton of Hike to Heal did our 7-week event management training with a cohort of other event organisers from across regional Australia. Because their committee has little to no experience in conducting events, they wanted knowledge from experts and to interact with other event organisers to gain confidence to continue and grow. Their key struggle was recruiting committee members.
