<p style="font-size:25px">Are you interested in tabletop games that solve challenges?</p>



<p>The Burdekin Games Group is a local social group of like-minded adults who enjoy and play tabletop role-playing games such as Dungeons and Dragons. </p>



<p>Dungeons and Dragons is a game usually involving 6-8 people who role-play an adventure using dice to work through challenges in a fantasy world where each player is a character – think Lord of the Rings. </p>



<p>The group meets every fortnight at the Burdekin Neighbourhood Centre.</p>



<p>If you are interested in joining, would like to come along and see what it is about, or would like further information, please get in touch with John on 0419 784 982.</p>

<p style="font-size:24px">The Neighbourhood Centre is looking for community members who would like to help us make a positive impact in the Burdekin community.</p>


<div class="wp-block-image">
<figure class="alignright size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="440" height="587" src="https://thebnc.org.au/2023/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/LookingPic.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-420" srcset="https://thebnc.org.au/2023/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/LookingPic.jpg 440w, https://thebnc.org.au/2023/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/LookingPic-225x300.jpg 225w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 440px) 100vw, 440px" /></figure></div>


<ol class="wp-block-list">
<li>We seek individuals with skills and experience to join our Management Committee and help us achieve our goals. Don&#8217;t worry if you are not an expert in everything; we welcome people from all backgrounds and appreciate different perspectives. This helps us stay relevant to the broader community and make a positive impact. </li>



<li>We seek people interested in working together to build a stronger and more connected community. We believe we can achieve this by collaborating on projects such as mentoring, group facilitation, or community consultations. Your participation and contribution are greatly appreciated.</li>
</ol>



<p>At our Neighbourhood Centre, everyone is welcome, regardless of who they are. We are run by locals who care about their community and want to make a difference. The most important thing about our centre is the people who come here!</p>



<p>Volunteering is a great way to learn new skills and gain experience. It&#8217;s also an opportunity to meet new people, expand your network, and show your commitment to personal growth and community involvement. Plus, it looks great on your resume!</p>



<p>If the Neighbourhood Centre isn&#8217;t the right fit for you, don&#8217;t worry. We can help connect you with other local organisations and community groups that need volunteers. Our team at the Neighbourhood Centre is dedicated to improving people&#8217;s lives in Burdekin every day.</p>



<p>If you&#8217;re interested in trying out something new and exciting in the year 2024, why not get in touch with us? We&#8217;re located at 40 Chippendale Street in AYR and would be thrilled to hear from you!</p>
