The Cheltenham Community Centre Inc (CCC), previously known as The Cheltenham Neighbourhood House, was founded in 1986.
Initially a group of people from the Cheltenham Church of Christ (now Southern Community Church of Christ) established an 'open door' friendship group. Over the years this has increased to over 1200 people accessing the Centre each week attending self-help, educational and recreational activities and taking advantage of the occasional child care program. A volunteer Board of Governance elected each year at the annual general meeting, oversees the running of CCC. |
Originally the Neighbourhood House operated from an old house on the church grounds. In 1997 the church rebuilt their worship centre and offered CCC accommodation at a low rental, as one of their contributions to the community. CCC is autonomous from the church and is an incorporated body.
CCC works in partnership with local agencies, learning institutes and government to provide individuals and the community at large with a variety of services.
At the Cheltenham Community Centre, staff encourage volunteers to participate in many areas, thus giving people their right to ownership of this community venture. The benefits of volunteering are many and varied and skills exchange is an excellent way to provide support and development.
