This year has been a tumultuous year with COVID-19 impacting us all individually whether in our profession, our employment or our interaction with our family and challenging how we provided our banking services and our support to the Corangamite community. I am proud of our staff at the Community Bank Cobden & Districts and Camperdown for their endeavour to ensure that the one thing that did stay constant was your banking services. Through COVID-19 our doors remained open and our staff retained their smiles and friendly welcoming customer service. The leadership shown by our Branch Manager, Ken Black, supported by Jason Chuck, Regional Manager and all the staff to manage the situation, to continue to provide banking services in the face of adversity and challenging times as an essential service, was selfless. The commitment from the Board and our Company Secretary Jan Fleming to continue business as usual is commendable. Without the support of these key people we couldn’t have continued banking services to our community during this time.

  • Great South Coast
    Great South Coast Infrastructure Victoria is investigating infrastructure investment in regional Victoria that builds on the economic strengths of a region, or that reduces disadvantage, primarily through providing greater access to services and economic opportunities. This fact sheet is focussed on reducing disadvantage, and should be read in conjunction with the accompanying framework for reducing disadvantage through infrastructure. The purpose of this fact sheet is to provide evidence that will inform the problem definition for each of Victoria’s nine regions through consultation with stakeholders. The project has a specific focus on areas that experience relatively high levels of disadvantage (ranked in the bottom 30% of the index of Socio-Economic Disadvantage, SEIFA) and this fact sheet provides indicators showing poor outcomes for key demographic groups living in these areas. Infrastructure Victoria invites key stakeholders and service providers to make submissions that provide evidence on which infrastructure could make a difference in reducing disadvantage for the region.
