PROJECT UPDATE: Tatura Senior Citizens Hall

The works will include a new hall, a new entry way and internal refurbishment works.

Greater Shepparton City Council’s Director Community Kaye Thomson said the Senior Citizens club had fundraised to contribute $20,000 towards the $160,000 project.

“These works will ensure the facility has enough room for a number of user groups to operate comfortably as the users have outgrown the current facility,” Ms Thomson said.

“The user groups also had input into the works design, so that the centre would be able to meet their needs now and into the future.

“I congratulate the Senior Citizens Club for their fundraising efforts and their commitment to this project and would also like to thank all users for their patience while the works are being undertaken.”

Tatura Senior Citizens Group President Veronica Dowell said the group was excited the project will be commencing shortly.

The centre will be operational during the works, which are expected to take approximately three and a half months.
