Our community tells us that it's time to focus on Youth Services, facilities and support within the Shire of Denmark.

Our new Strategic Community Plan, Our Future 2033, identifies our six community priorities: one of which is 'Services and Facilities for Youth'. This means, when we asked our community what the Shire needed to focus on in the decade ahead, they said loudly and clearly that we need to improve our offerings and services for youth in Denmark.

So we're getting to work, with more funding and dedicated resources working towards some exciting goals in the year ahead!

Here are some of the Youth-focused items funded in our Annual Budget, which was adopted this month:

  • Youth Strategy
  • Concept designs for Berridge Park Revitalisation
  • Turner Road mountain bike trails
  • Returning McLean House to a youth hub (a dedicated space for activites, programs and support services)

It's now time to start engagement with our youth community to start building our plan for the future of Youth Services here in our Shire.

  • Providing for our Youth

    ‘Nothing about us without us’

    In 2024, McLean House will return to a Youth focus as a dedicated space for activities, programs and support services for young people aged 12-25 years. We want to work with young people to co-design the space and the program of activities they would like to see happening at the Youth Hub.
