Kindtown is an initiative started and run by local volunteers for the people and businesses of Kyneton in the midst of the COVID-19 outbreak. People with stores and businesses in the town are invited to: register themselves on the website and list their current operations and measures they are taking to keep their customers safe. They are able to update these details whenever necessary.

It is helpful for Kyneton locals to know which businesses are still operating and any precautions they need to know of if they visit these places of business. Having a directory of local businesses in the one spot makes this process quicker and simpler. There is no doubt that it will be easier for locals to support their town with this knowledge at hand. This ongoing community support will keep doors open and jobs available for longer, thus protecting the livelihoods of many.

The administration team at Kindtown reiterated this powerful message to the community: “Help us to help you. We are thrilled to be able to support you all with a platform to connect and support each other during this time”. Kindtown can be accessed via their website, on Facebook or Instagram.
