EastEnders – cohealth & Salvation Army

Community Information Session

Health & Support Services at 69 Bourke Street

EastEnders are pleased to invite you to a Community Information Session which will be held at Seminar Room 1, State Library Victoria, 328 Swanston Street, Melbourne, on Tuesday 12 August 2025, at 5:30pm.

The Salvation Army’s Project 614 at 69 Bourke Street offers a range of health and social support services for people facing complex challenges in Melbourne’s CBD.

This information session will give residents, traders and community members an opportunity to hear directly from The Salvation Army and cohealth about the services provided at 69 Bourke Street, including the new on-site health clinic, and to discuss broader impacts, concerns and opportunities that matter to the local community.

The details of this event are:

Date: Tuesday, 12 August 2025
Time: 5:30pm
Venue: Seminar Room 1, State Library Victoria, 328 Swanston Street, Melbourne 3000
Directions
: please enter via Entrance 3 (Conference Centre Entrance) on La Trobe Street, and once inside the foyer, head upstairs and to your right for the Seminar Rooms

The session is hosted by EastEnders, with the Salvation Army and cohealth.

EastEnders is a local group of residents based in the east end of the CBD and offers a warm welcome to all interested residents across the City of Melbourne.

At this session, the Salvation Army and cohealth will speak about what services are offered at 69 Bourke Street, how they’re working with the City of Melbourne and other partners to support safety and amenity, and how they can ensure local voices help shape the way services are delivered. The presentations will commence at 5:30pm followed by a question-and-answer session scheduled to finish at around 7:00pm.

In June, EastEnders hosted an exceptional meeting where cohealth informed residents about their services at the Salvation Army building at 69 Bourke Street and more broadly across our community. In July, this was followed up by a tour of the premises at 69 Bourke Street. Many questions were asked and issues raised of keen interest to attendees, and it was thought helpful to provide this session for a wider audience.

Please RSVP using www.addevent.com/event/MR26212010 as seats are limited.


Please send an email c/o events@residents3000.org.au if you would like any further information about this event, or if you wish to submit any questions on notice to the guest presenters before this event.

EastEnders look forward to hearing from you and seeing you at their events!
