Host Responsibility: Towards a Culture of Care

Here’s your chance to gain a better understanding of the ever-evolving responsible gambling environment in Australia.

Twin Towns is committed to addressing gambling harm minimisation and fostering a culture of care. That’s why we’re holding our fourth responsible gambling conference in October 2023. It’s a must for anyone who works in Clubs and associated industries, especially with gaming machines.

From board directors and management to staff who work on the front lines of responsible gambling, attendees will be inspired by the expert knowledge and valuable insights provided by this year’s speakers.

The free conference runs from 9am to 3pm (Qld time) and lunch will be served on the day.

Please forward this email to your Club colleagues or industry associates who may also wish to attend.

We look forward to seeing you at Twin Towns!

Please RSVP prior to 5pm, Friday 6 October. Spaces are strictly limited.
