BAAG is a recognised industry leader and operates an innovative art, garden and environmental business that has become an integral part of the local community over its 50-year history on the site. The business has been in the current family ownership for 37 years, with a committed and capable team. BAAG is an integral part of the community and a recognised asset that takes much pride in its contribution to the community generally and through its cultural and environmental actions. The current EES identifies the land that BAAG operates from as being required for the Manningham Road Construction Compound and therefore BAAG faces acquisition and likely closure of the business. In addition to the loss of jobs, the substantial contribution BAAG makes to sustainable gardening, environmental enhancement and accessible, community focused art would be lost.

Community and Planned Activity Group Guide
1 Social connection, physical activity and involvement in community and group activities are key determinants of both mental and physical health. Planned Activity Groups and community groups are ways that people within the community, particularly those with diverse needs, can be supported to maintain active involvement in the community and maintain social connections with others. These groups also play a vital role in developing the skills of people with diverse needs to assist with living at home. The aim of this guide is to provide support for Planned Activity Group and community group coordinators in Melbourne‘s west to plan and organise activities which are appropriate for participants with a diverse range of needs. HealthWest Partnership and ISIS Primary Care have developed this guide through consultation with a range of Planned Activity Group and community group coordinators across the West. This guide recognises that Planned Activity Groups and community groups often have small budgets for their activities. This guide aims to support group coordinators by show casing the interesting and innovative activity ideas that many individual group coordinators have developed, as well as providing other ideas for cost-effective outings and in-house activities. HealthWest Partnership and ISIS Primary Care hope that this guide can be a useful resource and support group coordinators to continue the great work that is already occurring across the Western suburbs. 1 This guide aims to support Planned Activity Group and community group coordinators in providing cost-effective and innovative activities that meet the diverse needs of people who attend planned activity and community groups.
