If you are in need of some support, your local Neighbourhood Houses may be a good place to start.

Neighbourhood Houses are the heart of our communities. They bring people together to connect, learn and contribute to their local community through social, educational, recreational and support activities. They are places where people come together to support their local community and make a significant difference in people’s lives.

They are run by the community, for the community and offer a wide range of programs and activities for local people.

There are 35 Neighbourhood Houses located around Tasmania. Visit the Neighbourhood Houses Tasmania website to find one near you.
