Council relaunches program for families and businesses
Baw Baw Shire Council 26 Apr 2023

Baw Baw Shire Council is proud to announce the relaunch of Family Friendly Baw Baw, a program that works with local businesses to promote the amazing services they have on offer for families and children across the Shire.  

To participate, interested eligible businesses are invited to download and read the Family Friendly Baw Baw Information Pack and then register their family friendly business via the online form.  

Council’s Family Friendly Project team will then be in touch with each business to provide them with an information pack and guidance on how to participate in the program. Businesses will also be distributed a sticker for display that indicates to families what services or facilities are available for children and parents to use without the obligation of making a purchase. 

For families looking to identify family friendly facilities, a frequently updated list of all participating local businesses can be found at: www.bawbawshire.vic.gov.au/FamilyFriendlyBawBaw 

Quote attributable to Mayor Cr Annemarie McCabe  “We are excited to relaunch the popular Family Friendly Baw Baw. With so many new families moving into Baw Baw, it’s important they are aware of the child friendly amenities available to them within the Shire.  

This program is a fantastic way to help promote our amazing local businesses, many of whom are run by families and people with children, as well as highlight the spaces available for families and children to feel comfortable and welcome.  

We’re now inviting any of our local businesses who may have family friendly facilities at their site, to register their businesses and be a part of this great initiative.”
