Community Connect

Community Connect is all about connecting Centre Wellington residents to the services, businesses and ways to get involved, be active and feel engaged as our community grows.

Everyday heroes walk our streets each day. Instead of capes, they sometimes were aprons, carry paint brushes and smile often. They are the reason why programming happens for seniors, kids have nutritious meals and flowers come up every Spring.

Meet some of the amazing characters in Our story, who all have a story of their own to share. Follow us on Facebook and LinkedIn to hear more incredible volunteer stories.

Meet some of our community's heroes below. 

Each month a different organization will open their doors to welcome people and learn more about their services. This is geared to people who might need their service or people who want to volunteer with the organization. There will be staff to answer your questions, volunteers to share their experiences and a chance for you to see what the space looks and feels like.
