KWILS Out and About - Events and Activities
The KWILS team love to be a part of community events — whether it be NAIDOC Week, Youth Week, Pride Festival, Community Festivals and Expo, or coming along to visit playgroups.
We bring along interesting and engaging activities to run at events for women and children to start conversations about gender equality, and how KWILS can work with you, your family and community.
Please let us know if you have any events happening, or would like to partner with us for an event, by emailing info@kwils.com.au or Siobhan.Mackay@kwils.com.au
