Friday Uniting Gordon Community Centre Activities
For the past 40 years Gordon-Pymble Uniting Church have been conducting a Community Centre program. It’s a place where people can engage in activities and belong, regardless of their circumstances, religion, and abilities. We seek to be an inclusive community with no ‘ins or outs’.
Over the last 5 years our program has grown and whilst we have community groups running most days of the week, we also have specific community events for celebratory weeks and information sessions e.g. Seniors Week. We recognise that people need a safe place to connect with others.
A free morning tea is available from 10 am onwards.
Why not make a morning of it! You’re welcome to stay to join the $10 community BBQ afterwards.
