Why a hub in the city of Knox?



Support that reflects the community around us


Around 33% of Knox residents were born overseas, while 29% speak a language other than English at home. Knox is also home to young families, older adults, carers and people living alone, creating different wellbeing needs across the community. The way we experience and express wellbeing can vary across cultures, families and stages of life.


Wellbeing looks different for everyone. For some people, personal challenges may be talked about through:


  • family and relationships
  • work and financial pressure
  • physical wellbeing
  • caring responsibilities
  • faith and community
  • loneliness or missing home
  • everyday stress

Others may prefer to keep personal matters within the family, may not know where to seek support, or may worry about what others will think. The Knox Hub is designed to provide a local and affordable place to seek support earlier, before everyday challenges become harder to manage.
