The new youth space provides a central location for young people to meet and connect with others and also provides youth specific resources and services in the Eastern Growth corridor of our municipality.

The state-of-the-art facility features a multi-purpose recreational space with ovals for cricket, football and soccer, and includes sports lighting, an access for all abilities playground, change rooms and landscaping.

It provides a home base for Council’s Youth Services provision in the area, with space for self development groups, young men’s and women’s programs, life skills programs, assertiveness courses and a base for larger scale events.

The facility also hosts a range of community programs, including adult education, languages other than English, parenting seminars and a space where the local community can meet and socialise. The centre will also provide a base for a new Neighbourhood House program.

The Taylors Hill Youth and Community Centre and Reserve is available for use by community groups wishing to seek a space for the running of events or meetings.

The Taylors Hill Youth and Community Centre is located at the corner of Calder Park Drive and Omarama Way, Taylors Hill.
