Murray Connect

VISiT WEBSITE

The Community Quarter

Murray Connect is a co-working space and community hub located in Barham NSW. ​It is a community initiative that aims to provide a central hub for the purpose of connecting people, industry and research for the purpose of facilitating adaptation within the community to grow economic sustainability within the region.

​This concept was initiated and driven by the Western Murray Land Improvement Group (WMLIG), with the support of a diverse consultative committee filled with local government, business representatives, community groups and industry. The committee received $5,000 from the Murray River Council to begin a lease contract for the old Barham Catholic School building with the Barham Catholic Church, who have also been avid supporters of the concept.

At the beginning of 2019 WMLIG received funding from the Foundation for Rural & Regional Renewal to fit out the building as a co-working space, employ a Community Support Officer and run Drought Support Workshops across the region. This project is due for completion in March 2022. 

Murray connect offers high quality office, meeting and workshop facilities; co-working spaces, mentoring support; information services and a base for WMLIG and business, government agency and staff operations.
