SOCIAL WELLBEING

​

The purpose of St Arnaud Neighbourhood House is to increase social and public wellbeing, and we provide many projects and activities that enable residents to participate with other people, to help prevent social isolation and promote mental health.

​

There's always something fun to do with other people at the St Arnaud Neighbourhood House!

​

Please contact the centre if you would like more information about these activities, or just drop in and ask!

Life Story Books

Ongoing project

We work with local aged care providers to deliver the Life Story Book Project for several of their residents. The project aims to honour the life and valuable contributions of our elderly residents by providing a professionally-printed hardcover book containing a biography of the resident’s life and many of their photographs from throughout the years.
