Destination North Coast (DNC) has organised a series of virtual meetings to support the local business events community through the challenging era of COVID-19.

The #allinthistogether morning tea meeting series is designed to keep a ‘health check’ on the community and stakeholders on the North Coast region, which covers the area from the Queensland border in the north to Hawks Nest in the south.

“As we all know, when the announcement was made to limit gatherings of people, the first market to really feel the impact was the business events market,” said DNC business events executive Beck Morley.

“Many of our venues and support services specialising in business events on the North Coast either closed, down-sized or pivoted in response.

“As a result DNC have organised #allinthistogether a series of morning tea meetings to ensure that our community stays connected and that our people feel valued, even if they are temporarily out of a job.”

The meetings, hosted by DNC business events executives, will allow stakeholders to discuss available resources, as well as how to access professional development and resilience training on a complimentary basis.

Some of the upcoming guest speakers include:

• Tim Jack Adams
• Nicky Rasmin
• Lynne Schinella
• Kerri Rodley

In addition to the professional development training, the meeting will allow for a bit of comic relief with prizes awarded to best dressed in response to the theme of the meeting.

Some of these include:

• We take our hat off to you! – wear your most entertaining hat: Thursday 2 April 2020
• PJ Party – whether you wear day pjs or night pjs – we won’t judge: Thursday 9 April 2020
• Active, active, active wear… best outfit wins: Thursday 16 April 2020
• World travel from the comfort of your lounge room: Thursday 23 April
