Richmond Institute and Life Saving Victoria are running First Aid and CPR training for Manningham's sport clubs volunteers.
Suitable for those wanting to refresh their training or complete training for the first time.
Richmond Institute is the education arm of the Richmond Football Club and a leader in sports industry education. In 2020 Richmond Football Club formed a partnership with Life Saving Victoria (LSV) to deliver accredited training on their behalf to Richmond Institute staff and students.
Life Saving Victoria (LSV) is a registered training organisation regulated by the Australian Skills Quality Authority (ASQA) approved to deliver nationally accredited vocational education and training services throughout Victoria.
Together LSV and Richmond Institute work with communities, educational institutions, government agencies, businesses, and the broader aquatic and sport industry, to achieve our combined organisations’ visions and missions.
Solar Savers is a local government initiative helping households and businesses to install quality and affordable rooftop solar and batteries. This initiative is supported by Manningham Council in partnership with Solar Savers.
Council provides subsidies to pensioners for roof top solar and to all residents who install batteries purchased through Solar Savers. This is an opportunity for pensioners to learn how to reduce their energy cost by installing roof top solar. And for those who want to ensure their power stays on, even during blackouts, energy security for the home is now made more affordable.
In this interactive practical 60 minute presentation find out:
- what to consider when installing solar panels and batteries
- Council subsidies and other available rebates for rooftop solar and batteries through the Solar Savers program

This event has sold out.
International Women’s Day is a global celebration of women’s achievements and raises awareness for women’s equality.
Thirty years ago, the world committed to a bold vision for gender equality, the United Nations' Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action.
Since then, we’ve seen women break barriers, reshape policies, and ignite global movements. Yet, despite these strides, the promises made remain largely unfulfilled for millions of women worldwide. We are simply not where we should be.
It’s time to turn promises into progress. March Forward.
Join us for International Women’s Day 2025 to commemorate Beijing+30 and #MarchForward for a gender equal future.
Our annual International Women’s Day Breakfast is being held on Thursday 6 March 2025, with keynote speaker Dr Emma Fulu, one of the world’s leading experts on ending violence against women and girls.
Tickets now on sale and are $25 per person, including a plated breakfast.
If you have any questions about this event, contact us.
This is an accessible event. Access supports, including Auslan or language interpreters can be requested at the time of booking.

These two 2.5 hour informal sessions will explore how to plan, book and enjoy an overseas vacation where you want to do your own thing. ...
It can be fun to plan an overseas holiday where you set your itinerary. Sometimes you don't want to be stuck on a bus and herded like cattle when you travel. You want to be free and tailor your own schedule.
These two 2.5 hour informal sessions will explore how to plan, book and enjoy an overseas vacation when you want to do your own thing.
We will explore how to go about this complicated exercise including:
- what to plan
- how to estimate the cost, and zoom in on the actual cost through the process
- when to use a travel agent and when not to use a travel agent
- economy versus premium economy versus business class – air travel
- fly/drive versus bus tours
- consideration of train travel versus car versus bus for medium distances
- travel insurance
- difference between travelling to Europe, USA and Asia – language, culture and cost
- using money overseas
- internet and phone access
- planning for medication
- and much more depending on where the discussion and questions take us.
The session will be guided by an experienced overseas traveller and is not commercially motivated.
The main focus of the sessions will be to answer questions in advance of your proposed planning and travel – especially if you have not travelled internationally or not travelled for many years.
Find a world your taste buds will delight in, with Manningham’s fine dining. Tempt yourself with locally owned cafes and bakeries. Wine and dine at award winning restaurants, nestled amongst the trees, or standing proud in trendy suburbia.

Members of the public can attend Council meetings in person. We have reviewed our Council meeting practices to ensure we provide a safe environment for Councillors, staff and the community at meetings. Council meetings will continue to be live streamed and we encourage you to follow the meeting on our Facebook page (even if you don’t have a Facebook account) or website. The live stream is not interactive. Any comments or private messages directed to us while the stream is live will not be presented to Council or have a bearing on the conduct of the meeting.
Other temporary changes to our Council meetings:
Public Question Time – At this time, anyone wanting to ask a question of Council should submit their question via email by 5.00pm on the Monday before the meeting. As you cannot be present in the chamber, your question will be read out at the meeting by the CEO. For more information visit the Council Meeting Procedures page.
