Our Drop In Centre is open to all

The Drop in Centre is located upstairs in the Cotton Tree Library Complex Beach Pde Cotton Tree.

Our advocates provide counseling and advice on services and benefits available to veterans.

Disabled access is also available through a lift in the library. Just see someone within the library and inform them that you need help. They are happy to oblige.

Our Drop in Centre is a relaxing place to either pass time before an appointment with one of our Welfare Advocates or to just “drop in” and have a coffee or tea and a chat with fellow veterans. Comfortable leather chairs, tea, coffee and soft drink facilities and are supplied for your enjoyment.

We offer an extensive library of books for our members to borrow

During the more than 10 years of its operation the drop in centre has seen over 50,000 visitors. Come on in and join us!

DISABLED ACCESS TO THE DROP IN CENTRE

For those in our ranks with disabilities that prevents them using the stairs to the Drop-in-Centre, there is a lift available through the Council Library next door. You will have to ask one of the Library staff to accompany you, so the top floor access door can be unlocked. To leave, just have the Duty Officer phone the library on 54958915 and they will again unlock the access door….
