Youth Expo serves up feast of future options

Gunnedah Shire Council

The 2023 Gunnedah Youth Expo will bring a smorgasbord of career options to Gunnedah as part of the Shire’s Youth Week celebrations.

The Youth Expo will be held in Gunnedah Town Hall from 9am to 3pm on Thursday, April 27.

Gunnedah Shire Council Manager Economy and Growth Susan Frater said the Gunnedah Youth Expo, held annually during Youth Week, was being jointly funded by a grant from the NSW Department of Communities and Justice matched by Gunnedah Shire Council and supported by employers and services from across the Shire.

“This is always a popular event that brings students and school leavers together with employers and tertiary institutions,” Ms Frater said.

“It is a great way to have a whole range of career and support options in one place.

“In the current employment market, school leavers have a wide range of options, and there are businesses right here in Gunnedah who can offer amazing opportunities. Alternatively, there will be universities and tertiary institutions there to talk to students about what they have to offer.

“This free event has been designed especially for young people aged 12 to 25 to bring a window to the world to Gunnedah for the day.”

The Youth Expo is one of the highlights of Youth Week in Gunnedah Shire.
