Paul Myatt Community Centre

The Paul Myatt Community Centre is a welcoming hub where people with disability, their families, carers and the wider community come together to connect, learn and participate in inclusive activities. Managed by WhatsUp in Disability since 2011, the Centre is dedicated to creating opportunities for social inclusion, education and community engagement.

Unfortunately, every time it rains, our car park becomes flooded, muddy and difficult to navigate. For many visitors this is inconvenient, but for people who use wheelchairs, walking aids or have limited mobility, it can make accessing the Centre unsafe—or even impossible. Families with young children, older Australians and transport providers also face significant challenges entering and leaving the Centre.

We are raising funds to transform the car park by installing a sealed bitumen surface together with kerb and channel infrastructure to divert stormwater away from the entrance. These improvements will provide a safe, all-weather accessible parking area that can be used year-round, regardless of the weather.

Every contribution, no matter how large or small, will help us remove a significant barrier to participation. By supporting this project, you are investing in a more accessible, inclusive and welcoming community where everyone can participate with dignity and independence.
