COVID-19 has been difficult for many of us, and restrictions on movement and activity meant that many people have experienced high levels of social isolation. For those residents without close friends or family — or without access to the internet — it has been even harder to stay connected and access support and information.

Thanks to the State Government’s Working for Victoria initiative, Glen Eira City Council has established a team of community ambassadors to help support the community to stay safe.

Our ambassadors will work in teams across the municipality, including in Glen Eira facilities, parks and shopping precincts. They are there to proactively provide information to support community members who may have been impacted by the current pandemic, connecting them with services and support that might be beneficial to them.

As restrictions continue to ease, ambassadors will also be providing information about local activities and events available in Glen Eira.
