Manningham Council will open a new youth hub at MC Square in Doncaster this August to support young people across Manningham.
MY Hub will open its doors on Thursday 8 August 2024 as a dedicated space for young people aged 10 to 25 in Manningham to find support, resources, and referrals from Manningham’s Youth Services (EACH) team.
Manningham Mayor, Councillor Carli Lange said Council is committed to supporting all young people in our community.
“Our young people are the future of Manningham. We want to make sure everyone has the resources and support they need to thrive locally,” Cr Lange said.
“MY Hub will be a welcoming and empowering space where young people can find the help they need to grow, connect, and thrive in our community.”
The services available at MY Hub will include:
-
Free mentoring support, guidance, and advice for young people aged 10 to 25
-
Leadership and community engagement opportunities
-
Youth programs for schools and local community groups
-
Support for community service providers and businesses
“In my discussions with Manningham Deputy Mayor and chair of the Manningham Youth Advisory Committee Councillor Laura Mayne, she said it will be a great new space for Manningham and encourages everyone to check out the new youth hub” Cr Lange said.
“Our goal is to create a welcoming space where young people can access the support they need, engage with their community, and build a bright future,” Cr Lange said
The youth hub is a key action in Council's 2021-2025 Council Plan, which prioritises better support and services for young people.
“Creating a youth hub is a major initiative that reflects our community's desire for better youth support services. We are committed to ensuring everyone can access these resources easily and be part of a healthy and safe community,” Cr Lange said.
Located on level one of MC Square in Doncaster, MY Hub will join a range of other community services that make MC Square a central hub for the Manningham community, including Whitehorse Manningham Libraries, Manningham Art Gallery, Doncare, Doncaster Maternal and Child Health Service, Doncaster Kindergarten, and Early Years at MC Square.
