There is going to be a lot to do for young people in Romsey next month.

Macedon Ranges Youth Services has teamed up with Sunbury and Cobaw Community Health (SCCH) to deliver a series of pop-up events in the town.

These programs will include a community consultation, a street art workshop, an open mic night, open to anyone aged 12 to 25 wanting to get involved.

Macedon Ranges council community director Maria Weiss said the pop-up programs would be a great opportunity for the community to meet some of the council’s youth team in person.

“[It’s a chance to] learn about some of the initiatives council is working on to engage young people locally,” she said.

The Youth Services team will be co-located with the SCCH staff in their office at the Romsey Ecotherapy Park on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays during this time and young people, as well as the wider community, are encouraged to pop in and say hello.
