Preston Neighbourhood House is a vital part of our community. We proudly manage two Neighbourhood Houses, one in High Street Preston and the other in Shaftesbury Parade in Thornbury. Our activities cover a range of services designed to improve quality of life, educate our children, provide quality training, connect people with their community, promote health and wellbeing, support volunteering, work with other services and support a multi cultural society. Occasional Childcare, Employment Pathway Education, leisure and recreation classes, community lunches, No Interest Loan Scheme, bi-monthly Makers Market and venue hire are just some of the services we offer. Please contact us any day Monday to Friday to take a tour of our centres and meet our friendly staff. Preston Neighbourhood House is a community based management model with skilled volunteers on our Board of Management. The Board meets monthly and provides the governance and the strategic direction of the organisation, ensures financial viability of the entity and compliance with legislative and contractual obligations. The governance model is developmental, with the Board working co-operatively and collaboratively with staff, volunteers, house participants and the wider community, thus generating a range of community benefits. Members are encouraged to be actively involved in decision making and to have ownership of the programs and activities in the centre.
