08.01.2022 "Due to the success of our takeaway community lunches, we were able to offer employment to a longstanding volunteer who was finding it tricky to get by. It was ...really gratifying to offer this to someone who has been so faithful to us, and who is so highly valued amongst our community. Our reimagined community lunch service sells out weekly, with many ‘eat one treat one’ meals donated for people isolated and in need. We have also upskilled many displaced people to get online, while our childcare has offered priority placement to front-line workers and those doing it hardest in these strange times. Our staff and volunteers have held together brilliantly, achieving so much. My priority through all of this has been to focus on making the people of Kyneton feel safe and connected and to offer them security in any way we can. I am so honoured to be counted amongst the numerous amazing neighbourhood houses taking on such enormous challenges with good grace and efficiency." Claire Rawlinson - Kyneton Community House #COVIDNHHEROES

We celebrate our diverse community, and love the layers of goodness that are brought to our House by people of all abilities every day. *This image depicts two men and one woman, they are all smiling.

They are all wearing aprons and are standing next to the bench that has food they have prepared layed out in front of them.
