Catering for all at Inglewood Show Society  

December 4, 2019

Shows are the lifeblood of rural towns and the Inglewood Show Society is continuing to improve its canteen dining room with $7750 secured through the Stronger Communities Program, Maranoa MP David Littleproud announced today.

“The renovations to permit disabled access at the Inglewood Show’s dining room reflects a true sense of community,” Mr Littleproud said.

“Making sure we cater for those with disability guarantees that anyone can get involved with events like the Inglewood Show – strengthening social ties means we are all contributing and bringing our worth to the table.

“I’m a firm believer in bringing people together and improving community services across Maranoa because it has a positive flow-on effect on our quality of life and how we support each other – making improvements to the Dalby Community Hall reflects this.

“Our bush communities are the heart of this country and I want to make sure that small capital projects are funded and the community gets exactly what it needs.”

Round 5 of the Stronger Communities Programme has seen $150,000 in Federal Government funding made available to Maranoa community groups.

Project grants range from $2500 to $20,000 to help bolster rural communities.
