Episode 9: Help for organisations during the COVID-19 pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic is presenting significant challenges for the community, including registered organisations, as physical distancing and other measures require us to work in different ways.

In this episode we explore some of the issues we know registered organisations are navigating at this time, and discuss the help and assistance available from the ROC.
