Plan for success Staying connected with friends, family and colleagues isn’t just good for you, it’s good for your health. When starting to plan your event, think about shared interests, skills and what would work best for your group. To get you started, we’ve provided some event ideas that can work for online or face-to-face events. Or you might like to get creative and come up with your own!

Women's Health Week 2021 runs from 6-10 September. We encourage you to hold your event within, or as close as possible, to this time. Just remember, the more notice you give your guests, the better. As your event approaches, you might even like to send out reminders.
Finding a suitable venue or location will depend on the type of event you are hosting (eg, your home, a cafe, local park, community centre or place of work). If your event is being held online, then you don't need a physical location. Instead of booking a venue, ask attendees to join your virtual event from their workplace, their home or even on the go.
Think about who will be invited to your event (eg friends, workmates, the wider community and even interstate participants). Online platforms make it easy to invite guests from all over the country and you can connect with them via phone, text, email or social media.
