The ACT Government will make a $25,000 donation to support Lifeline Canberra following the disruption of their bookfair today from unrelated protest activity.
Lifeline Canberra, through its dedicated volunteers, has not only supported this community through two of the most challenging years in our history but also for the last 50 years. It is incredibly frustrating that one of the organisations most significant fundraising activities has been impacted in this way.
The Government also encourages Canberrans to support the producers and market stallholders from the Capital Region Farmers Market who are operating from other venues this weekend due to the disruption at Exhibition Park.
