Your Community Centres

Your voice matters in your community!

We are reviewing the programs and services currently offered at our Kilburn and Enfield Community Centres. We would really like to hear from current users and community members who haven't visited our centres before.

What are the programs and activities you really enjoy attending and what new activities or programs would you like to attend? We would like to find out if there are any activities, services or events that we could offer that would attract you to visit these community spaces more regularly.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. Engagement closed on Wednesday 1 May 2024.
