FRRR’s 25 years of Local Solutions, Lasting Impact
In 2025, FRRR will celebrate 25 years of supporting remote, rural and regional communities across Australia – please share your story.
As part of our celebrations, FRRR is inviting community groups to share how FRRR’s funding and support has made a difference in your community. We want to put the spotlight on how these grants have strengthened the skills and capabilities of people and organisations who are the backbone of these towns and regions.
We’re also keen to hear your ideas and hopes for the future. We will share your thoughts and stories with the wider Australian community throughout 2025, raising the profile of the hard work and dedication of the thousands of volunteers and people who make the communities outside our major cities such vibrant, resilient and sustainable places to live, work and play.
Below is a form for you to contribute your story. You can respond to one or as many of the questions as you like – we appreciate anything your share. You can upload photos or take a short video on your phone to help bring your story to life. If you’re up for it, we’d love to see and hear you tell your story to camera!
We’ve prepared some tips to help you but if you have any difficulties uploading via the form, please email partnerships@frrr.org.au
We can’t wait to see how you showcase your communities, the work of your organisations and the role that FRRR has played in bringing to life the vital projects that you have delivered. Thank you!
“FRRR seemed to have come from an alignment of the stars…”
And Helen Morris AM would know, as she was there at the time. She explains the different roles that so many people played in FRRR’s formation. We remain grateful for the “shining star” of Baillieu Myer, Helen’s hard work and passion, as well as the support of the Sidney Myer Fund, the Myer family and the staff.
We love the way Helen tells the story of how FRRR came to be in this extract. Watch the full story here.
