Where are the unconferences held?
In the very cute little 2nd Malvern Scout Hall, in the Milton Gray Reserve, Malvern, Vic. Yep, right in the middle of the reserve. Access is by path from 17 Cummins Grove or from Wattletree Road, almost opposite Cabrini Hospital. You can also hack across the grass from Wheatland Road. Lots of street parking, but make sure you're not in a resident parking space. Mobility access: paths are flat and gravelled, shortest path is from Cummins Grove, plus there are some steps into the hall (with a handrail). Public transport? Tram 5 along Wattletree Road, and stop 48 (Dixon Street). Or the train to Malvern station and then a 10-15 minute walk through side streets.
Note: Cummins Grove is a dead end street, and it can be difficult to turn around so you may wish to opt for the other streets if that's a worry.
