Our Vision
Our vision for the centre is to provide valuable services to the people who need them the most.
Research has shown that this is a community living with multiple disadvantages, however we also have significant assets in strength and spirit.
We aim to remove barriers for access to quality education, training, youth services and elderly support amongst a variety of other resources.
At our core is a vision to be more than just a drop in centre, but to meet the need to everyone and adapt to change and demand.
