The Hut Community Centre – A centre for all
Promoting Community Well-being
The Hut Community Centre is located in Aldgate. Our programs and services are facilitated across Kaurna and Peramangk land and we acknowledge the traditional owners’ deep connection to the land and waters of the region. We pay our respects to their elders, past, present and emerging.
In a world where everyone belongs, anything is possible.
Welcome to The Hut Community Centre, having been initially established in a small hut in Stirling we have a passion and commitment to support and positively influence a thriving, connected and inclusive Adelaide Hills community. We are located in Aldgate and have over 200 volunteers providing financial and social support, education, fun, and fitness activities to support the Hills community.
We offer a range of support services, including financial assistance, that can assist in times of need. Contact us if you or someone you know needs some support to get through a difficult patch. Our services are diverse and focus on engaging with residents in our Hills community and making meaningful connections. Programs include training and education, sharing skills and interests, and healthy living activities.
Our reach covers the Hills region through our networks and partnerships which support our philosophy of working with others to support the Hills community.
