Posted on by

EastEnders are pleased to invite you to their next meeting which will be held in the Leichardt Room at 27-29 Little Lonsdale Street, Melbourne, on Monday 18 August 2025, at 10:00am.

While the Lord Mayor is no stranger to EastEnders, this is the first time that he will be attending in his new capacity. We know we can look forward to an informative and entertaining speech with no shortage of challenging questions from our group.

This is a wonderful opportunity to be up close and personal to our Lord Mayor and raise any matter that you would like him to discuss.

Let’s fill the room with enthusiastic EastEnders and friends committed to a safe, secure and diverse Melbourne that is welcoming to all.

The details of this event are:

Date: Monday 18 August 2025
Time: 10:00am
Venue: Leichardt Room, 27-29 Little Lonsdale Street, Melbourne 3000
Directions: entrance is on left side of building

The session is hosted by EastEnders.

There are some current matters where your input might be timely.

  • The Council Vision and Council Plan is for consideration by City of Melbourne’s Future Melbourne Committee on Tuesday 19 August 2025.

  • The Lord Mayor has welcomed that the Federal Government has conditionally approved three high-rise towers in Queen Victoria Market’s Southern Precinct, despite concerns over heritage impacts.
  • The Lord Mayor asserts that pedestrian etiquette in Melbourne has reached new lows. He suggests that we “return order to our footpaths while also celebrating our walking economy. Stay calm. Be kind. Keep left. Or we may need the strong arm of the law to fix things”.
  • The City of Melbourne’s Community Engagement Policy is being reviewed and inputs are invited. Share your thoughts by 10 September 2025 and/or let the Lord Mayor know at EastEnders.

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!
