We recognise that every person who comes through our front door has different needs.

From our personalised transport service, to our language and parenting programs. From our caring and driven staff to our rare location surrounded by green space, the Drummoyne Community Centre’s ethos and localised programs are part of the community health of our City of Canada Bay.

We were established in 1978 by a group of local residents, who believed that caring individuals can make the world a better place. Now, more than ever, we strive to continue the 45 years of service by demonstrating the strength of a caring and compassionate community.
