🎉 A huge thank you to everyone who joined us at the Elara Community Connections Celebration at the Elara Hub on Saturday 💙
It was fantastic to see so many families, neighbours and volunteers coming together to celebrate the connections that have been built over the past three years at the Stockland Elara Hub.

The morning was a wonderful reminder of what makes our community so special – people connecting, supporting one another and building a sense of belonging.

📸 Check out some of our favourite moments from the day in the photos below!

While our Elara Hub program has now come to a close, our support for the community certainly hasn't. We are excited to continue welcoming Elara residents to North West Community Services in Riverstone, where you can still access a wide range of FREE supports, services and activities, including:

💙 Adult, teen and child Counselling
🫶Family and individual support
👶 Playgroups and children's activities
☕ Community groups and social activities
🎓 Training and education opportunities
🤝 Information, referrals and advocacy
🎉 Community events and so much more!

We look forward to continuing to connect, support and grow alongside the Elara community from our Riverstone centre.

Thank you to Stockland for helping make three years of community connection possible, and thank you to everyone who has been part of the journey.
