Address:  Elorac Place, 11a Southampton Road, Ellengrove QLD 4078.

The Community Centre is a safe and welcoming environment that offers a wide range of programs, activities, and services to support youth, families, children and individuals. The staff and volunteers at Elorac Place are committed to their vision of working towards creating a strong and healthy community.

Elorac Place is a lovely, welcoming and rewarding place to volunteer where you will meet many wonderful people and learn great new skills that may assist you both personally and professionally.   There are lots of other benefits to volunteering with us as well, such as:
  • We supply and pay for any security checks required for the position
