Love the proactive approach The Wine Bar! Please take the survey to help improve transport to the CBD.

🚌 Townsville, we’d love to hear from you!

One thing we hear regularly from our customers is that the cost of getting home from the CBD can make a night out expensive, and many tell us they wish there was a more affordable and reliable alternative.

It got us thinking — is this something other people across Townsville feel too?

Rather than assuming we know the answer, we thought we’d ask.

We’re exploring whether more affordable and reliable transport could encourage more people to visit the Townsville CBD and support our local restaurants, bars, entertainment venues and small businesses.

Whether you visit the CBD regularly, only come in for major events, or rarely come in at all, we’d really value your feedback.

Our anonymous survey takes less than 2 minutes.

Please share this post — we’d love to hear from people right across Townsville.

🌱𝐇𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐦𝐞𝐭 𝐓𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐍𝐐 𝐌𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 - Kymberley from Naturally Kids Allied Health
𝐓𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐮𝐬 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐛𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞. Naturally Kids is an occupational therapy practice helping neurodivergent children build confidence, connection and the skills to participate fully in everyday life.

𝐖𝐡𝐨 𝐝𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠? I love working with the children who are so often misunderstood. The ones labelled "difficult", "challenging" or as having "regulation problems". I especially enjoy supporting the families who have tried everything else and simply want someone to understand their child rather than try to change them.

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭'𝐬 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐩𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐦𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐛𝐞 𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐧 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐛𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬? Probably that some of our most powerful therapy happens in groups, not one-on-one. We run therapy groups in bushland, parks and other natural environments because that's where many children feel safest to take risks, connect with others and develop the skills that matter most in everyday life. We also run groups like Dungeons & Dragons, using role-play to help children build friendships, confidence and social skills in a fun and engaging way.

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐞𝐱𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐧𝐨𝐰?I'm excited about the growing recognition that participation, belonging and relationships aren't "nice extras" in child development. They're fundamental to health and wellbeing, and I'm passionate about helping shape systems that recognise that too.

𝐈𝐟 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐬𝐚𝐭 𝐛𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐭 𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐟𝐚𝐬𝐭, 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭? Honestly? I'd happily spend an hour talking about why so many kids are struggling, how we can build communities where they genuinely belong, and why prevention is so much better than waiting until families reach crisis point. Although there's a good chance we'd also end up talking about leadership, books or where to find a great coffee.

𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐰𝐞 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮'𝐫𝐞 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤? If I'm not running Mum's taxi service for my two teenagers and their various sporting and social commitments, you'll probably find me walking along a beach with a coffee and a book in hand, exploring somewhere outdoors with my family or fitting in a gym session. Being in nature is where I recharge.

Thanks Naturally Kids Allied Health - We'll see you at The Table NQ Networking Breakfast on July 31st!
