GLENELG and Southern Grampians Local Learning and Employment Network (GSGLLEN), together with major sponsors South West TAFE and Coleraine and Dunkeld Community Banks, hosted the 2023 Young Leaders Launch last Wednesday, May 3.

The Young Leaders Program officially started in 2021 and is based off the highly successful Future Leaders Program that was founded by Portland Aluminium in 2005 to order showcase the many different industries in the community, to bring youth back into the community after their tertiary studies and create a workforce of inspiring leaders.
