About  

BacLinks believes partnerships forged between businesses and community organisations are social investments that provide mutual benefits and positive social impact. They promote sustainability, community involvement, well-being and prosperity.

BacLinks has found that both community organisations and business need assistance to forge these partnerships and communicate their individual needs.

As the social eyes and ears of the community and a resource to business, we endeavour to provide a range of opportunities for business and community to share information, skills and resources. Through the development of a community network, BacLinks hopes to provide support and information to community on how to work effectively with business while sourcing community projects for business.

Aims 

The 130 Community Link is aimed at:

  • Build working links between business and community organisations with the aim of strengthening the community
  • Provide a forum for a sharing of the community voice to respond to community aspirations and needs
  • Provide an opportunity to present projects, events and activities, raise relevant issues and network with a broad range of services, agencies and community groups.

Proposed Outcomes

Outcomes from the 130 Community Link network will assist BacLinks to match business values with community needs; support not-for profits to access local and other funding; increase awareness of community services and clubs in the area; and increase opportunities for community groups to engage with local business. 

130 Community Link membership will entitle two of your organisation's representatives  to participate in quarterly meetings, along with other benefits. Activities at these meetings will involve Guest Speakers drawn from the business sector, focus group activities, news/events updates, funding and networking opportunities.
