A re-elected Andrews Labor Government will support Ballarat Neighbourhood Centre with an $80,000 grant, ensuring our hardworking volunteers can continue to provide the services that our community needs.

Ballarat Neighbourhood Centre offers opportunities for education, training, and community connection, along with a range of support services in a comfortable, friendly and accessible environment.

There are more than 400 Neighbourhood Houses across Victoria – for years the Ballarat
Neighbourhood Centre has brought locals together to meet, socialise, and mobilise to achieve positive community outcomes.

Labor is doing what matters – backing the important community organisations that help us when we need it most.

We’ll make sure they are supported to help local families and members of the community, ensuring every Victorian gets the help and support they need, when they need it – and closer to home.

Our Labor Government will always back local communities and their neighbourhoods – because only Labor is doing what matters.
