Who We Are

West Winds Community Centre is part of the network of 35 Neighbourhood Houses located across Tasmania and is governed by a Board of Governance of local community members
We seek to make the world a better place to live by connecting our community. We do this by:

  • Promoting belonging and community spirit
  • Working to reduce social isolation
  • Improving social inclusion and diversity
  • Creating a welcoming, inclusive and non-discriminatory environment
  • Adopting a social justice and human rights approach
  • Building community capacity 
  • Creating supportive environments that encourage self & group development

We are supported by the Crown through the Department of Premier & Cabinet (Community Partnerships & Priorities Division) to support and coordinate local community development.

We have a team of staff, led by the Manager, and a large team of volunteers who work together to strengthen our community.
