this supported local jobs and economic growth, with local architectural firm ARTAS Architects and Fairbrother Pty Ltd appointed to design and construct the hub.

In March 2022 a recruiting drive was held seeking people who live or work in the Sorell area to volunteer for the emergency services based at the hub.

As a result of the recruitment drive, about 50 Tasmania State Emergency Service and Tasmania Fire Service volunteers are ready to resource the hub.

Gardening In March

March is often one of our dryer months, and parts of the garden may be looking a little sad and be in need of a lift. The use of a coloured pot with bright flowers, for example a blue pot with yellow pansies will give that “WOW” to a drab area, or you can simply change the yellow flowers for white to give a cool, clean look.

A statue or urn can also be used as a focal point, or a bird bath placed near shrubs or trees will give interest to the garden - it can be as simple as a large saucer, or a fancier pedestal type.

You will be surprised how quickly birds will find the water and give you the bonus of cleaning up a few insects while they are visiting you garden.
