Newman Youth & Community Hub

The Youth and Community Hub will be a ‘one stop shop’. It will build community cohesion and connectedness, ensuring a full suite of youth, community, recreation, sport and leisure opportunities to meet the needs of our diverse community. The Youth and Community Hub will be a youth focused, multi-purpose, interagency facility enabling a centralised approach to service delivery and co-location, increasing access and participation to promote social cohesion and enhanced community health and wellbeing.
