About Us

The Hub is owned and operated by Gladstone Community Linking Agency (GCLA). It is an inclusive environment, promoting social inclusion of people with a disability and supports their participation in and contribution to our local community. 

GCLA’s Collective Enterprises are run from the Hub and deliver semi-structured activities to small groups of GCLA customers to create opportunities to socialise and improve independent living skills. These centre based group interactions have the ability to link into local community activities; allowing participants to engage and explore areas of interest within the program they have registered in.
