Safe and Sound Marlborough
About Safe and Sound Marlborough
Marlborough's journey towards becoming an International Safe Community began in late 2011. By intentionally working with existing groups and networks, the Safe and Sound @ the Top' project brought together different sectors to look at ways of addressing community safety issues and seeking solutions. Strong relationships have been formed across organisations as a forum for the development of ongoing safety programmes. The group received re-accreditation in 2020.
In recent times the meeting structure has struggled to keep the membership going. Therefore, a new approach is being piloted … introducing Refresh by Safe and Sound Marlborough.
Refresh Hui
The first event was held on 28 August with a range of presenters and topics related to safety and wellbeing in our community.
The next hui will be held in February, with the intention to host these 3 times per year.
