Venue and Accommodation Options
HOBART - The Host City
There are so many things that make Tasmania unique. Nature, history, the best
beers that Australia has to offer, accompanied by fine food, cool climate wines and
an easy relaxed atmosphere, these are just some of specialties that this wonderful
state has to offer. Its capital city is an intriguing blend of all of those elements:
heritage and lifestyle, scenery and vibrant culture. When you visit Hobart for this
conference you will find it is a city of warm welcomes and friendly smiles.
Hobart is warm sandstone, bright spinnakers on the water, fish punts at the docks,
the slap of halyards on masts, coffee under the striped sun umbrellas of Salamanca,
an occasional frosting of snow on Mt Wellington, bush tracks and birdsong. It’s a
city of history, where Battery Point’s first cottages peep shyly at each other across a
circle of green, and graceful old trees shelter the manicured lawns of heritage parks
and gardens. It’s a city of bustling markets, fun, festivals, entertainment,
and of fine restaurants.
THE VENUE -
THE OLD WOOLSTORE, HOBART TASMANIA

masterful example of how historic values can be preserved in the context of a truly
contemporary development. Delegates will enjoy the superb facilities provided by
the Old Woolstore Hotel, as the venue for “Volunteering on the Edge”. Located in
