Manufacturing needs a wider range of voices, including yours. TAFE NSW is establishing new Manufacturing Centres of Excellence to make it easier for people to access training and jobs in manufacturing. We're especially focused on helping groups who haven’t always had equal access, like: - women - people with disability - young people - carers - people from different cultural and language backgrounds. We want to hear from you. What gets in the way of training or finding a job in manufacturing? What helps?

Help shape the future of regional healthcare in NSW! We’re conducting the first evaluation of the NSW Regional Health Strategic Plan 2022–2032, which aims to create a sustainable, equal and connected health system that delivers what matters most to patients and communities in regional, rural, and remote NSW. The Plan focuses on 6 priorities: - strengthening the regional health workforce - improving access to safe, high-quality, timely care - prevention, early intervention, and education - keeping communities informed and engaged - expanding integration of primary, community, and hospital care - harnessing innovation for a sustainable health system.

“Many people don’t realise they are carers. But if you’re supporting someone through illness, disability or ageing, you are one. And it’s okay to ask for help.” For Cassandra, that journey began in 2013 when her Gran and Great Aunt became ill. While raising two young sons, she supported her Gran through cancer and cared full-time for her Great Aunt living with dementia, learning that no two days were ever the same. This National Carers Week, we recognise the resilience of carers like Cassandra and the importance of support, community and self-care.
