We’re looking for interested community members who are passionate about helping to shape the Wyndham community. The Panel is open to everyone, you don’t need to have any special knowledge about Council to join.

To ensure the Panel is representative of Wyndham, a diverse range of community members, including women, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander – First Nations peoples, people with disability, young people, LGBTQI+ people and people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds are encouraged to apply.

Elected representatives from any level of government, paid employees of any political party, Wyndham City employees, Councillors, former Councillors and immediate family members of these people cannot join the Panel.

As a community member, you have insight into how best we can shape the future of our City! This is why Wyndham City wants to hear from you.

The Panel is a great opportunity to have some input into future plans that affect the residents of Wyndham and to ensure that Wyndham City hears from its diverse community.

Membership of the Panel will last until the end of October 2024.

Over your membership, you may be asked to get involved in large workshops that are over a few days, smaller focus groups, interviews or be asked to provide your ideas via a survey. These can be in-person or online.

There will also be opportunities to connect with your fellow Panel members in forums and meetings to discuss those issues most important to you

Support will be provided to make sure all members of the People’s Advisory Panel can participate.

If you need information in another language, vision aids or any other support (such as childcare or help with other caring responsibilities), we will work with you to provide this.

When you register online or over the phone, please let us know about your specific requirements.

For support call Nivek on 0472 761 324 or email info@deliberatelyengaging.com.au

After registration closes, we will send you an invitation to attend some optional Welcome Information Sessions or Webinar.

The Welcome Information Sessions and Webinars will cover the same information. You do not need to attend more than one. If you are wanting to attend the Webinar (online) and are not familiar with the way they work or need support we are able to help you.

The Welcome Information Sessions and Webinars will take you through the purpose of the Panel as well as the different types of engagement you might participate in.

Already a member? Great! We will let you know when the Welcome Information Sessions and Webinars are and you are welcome to attend.

Also, make sure you let your friends, family and colleagues know to join the People’s Advisory Panel.
