The Shoalhaven Council initiative will see a variety of government and non-government services participating in the event, to give everyone the opportunity to gain access to services and information in one place.
Whether you need financial, housing, health , mental health, legal or government support, someone will be able to answer your questions.
There'll be lots of free activities and entertainment for the whole family and you won't go home empty handed - everyone participating will receive a free bag of goodies.
There will be local musicians performing, a free BBQ lunch and kids activities.
The Thrive Together Fair will be held on Wednesday, August 4 from 10am-3pm at the Shoalhaven Indoor Sports Centre, 90 Cambewarra Road, Bomaderry.
Buses will run from Kangaroo Valley, Berry, Ulladulla, Basin View, Sanctuary Point, Huskisson, East Nowra, Nowra and Bomaderry to ensure that no-one misses out.
