Horsham Community House on the move

Horsham Community House is moving to the former kindergarten and maternal child health centre at 15 Robin St in Horsham North. The community house, Council, DHHS and the local Neighbourhood House Network (Wimmera West Grampians Neighbourhood House Network Collective) have been working together to make this move possible. The previous building in Pearl St was a converted house, which wasn’t a suitable space for the House with the main problem being that the building didn’t meet current accessibility standards. The new building has a large kitchen and a variety of rooms and a large yard that will be great for outdoor activities. The Community House will open in the new facility on -une 3. The community house provides adult education classes, adult art and craft courses, activities for people with a disability, Work for the Dole programs, volunteer training and is a meeting venue for community groups. The new building will allow for larger groups of participants and provide better opportunities for new programs.
