NCHC WEEK IS HERE!​​
Neighbourhood and Community House and Centre Week celebrates the incredible work happening in local communities across Australia. Every week, more than 400,000 people walk through the doors of an NCHC to access support, connection, and opportunity.​
​
Hundreds of events are being hosted at Houses and Centres across six states, expecting over 11,000 people to come together for the biggest community-led lunch.
​
This year’s theme is ‘Your Place to Connect’, highlighting their unique role as ‘third spaces’ outside of home and work, being a community lifeline and fostering social connections across the country.
​
We know communities across the country are doing it tough. We’re calling on Australians to get involved in any way they can, by visiting their local House or Centre this week.
​
We invite larger organisations to chip in too, with donations of food, for example.
With 1,069 Houses and Centres across the country, more than the number of McDonald’s, we represent the largest place-based community infrastructure in Australia.

As part of Neighbourhood Centre Week, we are attempting Australia's record for the 'Largest Community Led Lunch'.
​
Throughout the week, Neighbourhood Houses and Community Centres across Australia will host local lunches that bring people together to connect and celebrate community.
