New Technology Opens up a World of Opportunities

COVID-19 has certainly had a major impact on our lives and has reminded us about the value and power of technology; allowing us to communicate via distance and stay connected.


This year we were incredibly grateful to receive funding through the Department of Communities and Justice, Social Sector Transformation Fund. This grant allowed us to be able to purchase new technology for our Centre, including three new interactive screens that our hirers can use. These screens, called ‘Maxhubs’ have an enormous range of capability and are perfect for things like online meetings, video calls, presentations, online collaborative activities as well as entertainment and fun.


They have a high quality display and sound with a range of useful features including a user-friendly interactive whiteboard, and they come at no extra cost for hirers to use. This technology opens up a world of opportunities for hirers and groups using our Centre and we can't wait to see all the wonderful ways they will be used to meet, connect, belong and grow.


We hope our community enjoys these new additions to our Centre. If you are interested in hiring one of our rooms and a Maxhub for your next activity or meeting contact us on (02) 4032 5500 or chat to our friendly reception staff.
