Accompanied Shopping Trips

Our Shopping Bus service operates on Tuesday and is designed for people who like to do their own shopping but need transport and a little extra help carrying their groceries.

How it works:

  • 10:00 am - Shoppers meet at the Centre

  • 10:15 am the bus makes a pick-up at Plunkett Street, Woolloomooloo.

  • From there, the bus travels to either Eastgate Bondi Junction or Marrickville Metro.

  • You’ll have 2–3 hours to shop at your own pace.

  • Our team will help load your groceries onto the bus, and you’ll be dropped back at your pick-up point.

Service cost: $5.00

My Aged Care

One of our key grants from the government is aimed at alleviating the social isolation of older people in our community.

We are creating the best strategies and processes to make this a reality. We match volunteers with clients to assist with shopping, attending appointments, bill paying, coffee meet-ups and even watering house plants.

If you have an interest in being part of this program please have a chat with Maree - our Project Officer - next time you're visiting or working at the Community Centre.
