About Hervey Bay Neighbourhood Centre
The Hervey Bay Neighbourhood Centre was one of Queensland’s first ‘community houses‘. Founded in 1987 by a group of active community minded volunteers, the Neighbourhood Centre provides a focal point to the local area.
It is a place where new arrivals to the Bay may discover the services that are available, a place for people to meet and a place where you may find help, information and referral.We are supported by an active volunteer team and always welcome new members to the group.
The Hervey Bay Neighbourhood Centre has become recognised as the ‘people place’ of Hervey Bay.
It is yours to use and enjoy.
