At the heart of Blackall, there’s a place where everyone belongs 💜 The Blackall Neighbourhood Centre is the heart of their community, providing support, connection and opportunities for people of all ages. Whether it’s crisis support and referral assistance or family activities and community events, the Centre is a welcoming hub where everyone belongs. Visitors can also access free public Wi-Fi and computers, visitor information services and the town library collections, all in one space. NCQ’s Chris, Micah and Sally recently visited the Centre, meeting with the team including Vivienne and Jamie-Lee as well as Wassim and Lisa from the Department of Families, Seniors, Disability Services and Child Safety. It was a great opportunity to see firsthand the incredible work happening in Blackall and the strong partnerships supporting the community. 👏 Thank you to the team at Blackall Neighbourhood Centre for your commitment to creating a space where everyone feels valued, supported and empowered.
