We are proud to share the official opening of our new Crisis Centre, a significant milestone made possible through strong collaboration and shared purpose. This project was delivered in partnership with Bridge Housing Limited and Lendlease, with funding from all levels of government.

It was an incredible day, with government representatives including:

  • The Hon. Clare O’Neil MP, Minister for Housing and Homelessness
  • The Hon. Tanya Plibersek MP, Minister for Social Services
  • The Hon. Rose Jackson MP, Minister for Housing and Homelessness
  • The Rt Hon. Clover Moore AO, Lord Mayor of Sydney
  • Councillor Zann Maxwell, City of Sydney
  • Councillor Adam Worling, City of Sydney
  • Councillor Sylvie Ellsmore, City of Sydney

The day reflected the strength of genuine partnership across government, industry, and community working together to respond to homelessness and housing need in our city.
