Central Ringwood Community Centre is a not-for-profit community organisation located within Bedford Park, Ringwood and provides a range of community courses, as well as facilities available for hire.

This afternoon I attended Central Ringwood Community Centre’s 2010 Annual General Meeting, which provided an opportunity to learn about the activities undertaken within the Centre. The Centre recently received funding through the Better Regions Program Funding, which has provided for accessibility improvements and a new activity room.

In addition Central Ringwood Community Centre is a partner in a project that aims to identify the needs of refugees from Burma, through identifying any gaps in existing services.  The project is due for completion in March 2011 and reinforces the Centre’s strong interest in Maroondah’s diverse community.
