People need people
Social connection is more important than ever before- and your local Neighbourhood Houses are here to help.
There are fourteen Neighbourhood Houses across the Central Highlands providing safe and supportive opportunities to connect with people in your community, through programs, events and volunteering.
As grassroots organisations each Central Highlands Neighbourhood House is local. Each house responds to the unique interests and opportunities of the community, to support local resilience through activities which can include interest-based workshops and groups, adult education and community activities, like gardening or markets.
Your Neighbourhood House as a place to belong – a place to learn, give and connect.
Check out our Reel Stories to see the many ways people do wonderful things at their neighbourhood house.
