Downer Community Association

Hosted by Downer Community Association

SpacetoCo Host since May 2024 · 1k bookings

The Downer Community Association was formed in 1985 (incorporated in 1987) to represent the interests of Downer residents on issues which affect our suburb and surrounding areas. These include local facilities, planning and traffic, development applications, changes to parks and streets, and issues which affect local communities, such as Downer Preschool and the proposed Goodwin independent living development.

About this space

Cosy and quiet, the smaller East Room seats 15-20, so is suitable for meetings or smaller groups. The floors are carpeted and the window blinds can create a dark space or be opened to fill the space with light.

Perfect for:

  • Tutoring, group meetings, study groups

  • Craft workshops and hobby enthusiasts

  • Music lessons

  • Therapy and support groups

  • Remote office work

Features:

  • Tables and chairs can be arranged in any formation to suit your needs, or remain stacked against the wall to maximise floor space.

  • The East Room has wifi, whiteboards and reverse-cycle air conditioning.

  • Toilets: East Room hire includes access to male and female toilets. Please note that the Centre does not have disabled toilet facilities and the public toilets near the oval have been decommissioned.

  • Kitchen hire can be added to your booking - the Centre has a kitchenette with a stove, microwave, fridge, urns and crockery. Please note that the kitchen is available to all hirers in the building and is not for exclusive use.

  • Access to the fully fenced garden space can be added to your booking - the outdoor area is wheelchair accessible and features a sandpit and large shadecloth.

  • An AED/ defibrillator and First Aid box are both affixed to the left hand side wall of the kitchen.
