Set at the historic Seafarers Mission in Melbourne, with two wonderful speakers, this is a great opportunity to learn more about SVPM, as well as the NFPs we work with. To access the venue, take the Flinders St tram to stop D5 (The Goods Shed). Alternatively, ample parking is available next door in Siddley St.
