Supporting People in Banyule When They Need It Most

A re-elected Andrews Labor Government will back the Banyule Support and Information Centre to continue doing their important work in the community.

We’ll provide a $5,000 grant to help them continue supporting people facing disadvantage and inequality in Melbourne’s north-eastern suburbs.

For years, the Banyule Support and Information Centre has helped thousands of Victorians by delivering emergency-relief services, referral and support services.

Funding from a Labor Government will ensure the organisation is well-equipped to continue helping local families – ensuring every Victorian gets the support they need when they need it.

It builds on the massive investments in community support the Labor Government has already delivered, ensuring neighbourhoods have accessible wellbeing and support services, close to home.

In sharp contrast, when it comes to delivering the vital support that people in our community rely on, Matthew Guy’s Liberals can’t be trusted. Instead, their policy of cuts and closures would leave locals behind.

Only a re-elected Labor Government will back the community organisations that keep our community strong – because only Labor will do what matters.
