It will be used to provide programs based around health & wellbeing, gardening, small scale build projects, table tennis, dance exercise and more. The shed will allow the House to improve the mental and physical health of residents and allow the Community House to expand programs to meet and strengthen the needs of the community. The new pathways will beautify the area and remove OH&S issues.

The project will develop and strengthen the community during social interaction of residents in an inclusive and safe environment. Long term positive and productive benefits will be opportunities opening up for many resident after many years of disadvantage due to long term unemployment. Some Shed programs some may go onto further study or go back into full time employment. Making the project beneficial for the Central Goldfields Shire into the future.

The Maryborough Community House is a constant work in progress, developing and applying groups of interest and participation for all residents of the central Gold fields region. This is run by dedicated volunteers looking for ways to improve and build upon their extensive programs already in place. Well worth the vote for the benefit of the community as a whole.
