Emergency food relief

These community-based agencies and organisations provide emergency relief and material aid such as food hampers, vouchers and pantries to people in financial crisis living in Manningham as part of the Food Relief Network.

Homelessness and crisis accommodation and support 

We take a dignity first approach to homelessness, recognising that homelessness or sleeping rough in public places is not illegal. With the ever-increasing cost of living, and any one of a number of life changing events, people can find themselves needing crisis accommodation when they least expect it.   

We work closely with a range of service providers to enable people experiencing homelessness, sleeping rough and/or needing crisis accommodation to find a safe place to rest.  

If you do have a welfare concern for a person who appears to be experiencing homelessness and/or sleeping rough, contact us on 9840 9333 and we will make a referral to the appropriate service provider.

Manningham Council is committed to:

  • Creating an organisational culture of child safety
  • Empowering children and young people

  • Ensuring employees, volunteers and contractors are clear about their responsibilities when they suspect abuse, harm or neglect of a child.

 

How to report a Child Safe Concern or Complaint

If a child is in immediate danger, call the Police on 000.

For immediate concerns contact the Department of Health and Human Services (DHS) Child Protection Eastern Division Intake Team on 1300 360 391 or 9843 6000; or the afterhours DHS Child Protection Emergency Service on 13 12 78.

Manningham Council takes all allegations and concerns about potential child abuse seriously and has practices in place to investigate and escalate to authorities, if necessary. Nothing prevents a person, who holds a reasonable belief that child abuse has been committed, to report such allegations directly to the relevant authorities.

In a Dementia-Friendly Community, people committed to making change come together. They create a more inclusive, supportive and welcoming place where everyone can thrive. 

People living with dementia are at the heart of all dementia-friendly communities, sharing their experiences to help create an inclusive community for all. You can be an individual, a group, a business or organisation, anyone can make a difference. 

Each Dementia-Friendly Community is unique, they may include social, sporting, recreational, faith-based or community groups. However, what they all share is that they engage with people living with dementia to understand their needs to create inclusive and supportive environments.

IDAHOBIT 2025 and beyond: championing LGBTQIA+ inclusion

Join us for a flag raising and morning tea in recognition of International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, Intersexism and Transphobia (IDAHOBIT)....

Everyone, regardless of their sexual orientation, gender identity or background, should feel safe, accepted and included.

Join us in recognising International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, Intersexism and Transphobia (IDAHOBIT). 

IDAHOBIT raises awareness of the violence and discrimination still faced by LGBTQIA+ people across the globe. This year’s IDAHOBIT theme is The Power of Communities.

After raising the rainbow flag outside the Manningham Civic Centre, we’ll head inside to the Manningham Function Centre to enjoy morning tea  and hear from guest speaker Charlie, from LGBTQIA+ youth charity Minus18. Charlie will share some of the barriers and challenges that LGBTQIA+ young people experience, along with practical tips for supporting your LGBTQIA+ friends and family. 

This is a free event, however registrations are essential.  We look forward to seeing you there.
