Helping Hands – Supporting Our Community

From a small mobile op shop in 2007, Helping Hands has grown into a welcoming community hub—providing food, meals, essential support, and volunteer opportunities, always with kindness at the heart of what we do.

Our Programs

· Community Pantries: Families in need have access to fresh food and pantry staples

· Community Dining Room: 80–100 hot meals daily, a place to connect and belong.

· Material Aid: Essentials like beds, clothing, and white goods for people in crisis.

· Inclusive Volunteering: People of all abilities contribute and learn new skills.

· Christmas Cave: Every year, the Christmas Cave brightens Christmas for more than 1,000 children with gifts given with care.

Our Reach

Two Community Pantries: Helping 150 families each day access the food they need.
12,000+ families registered for food support
300+ volunteers making it all possible
Thousands of kilos of goods diverted from landfill each year

Why It Matters

Helping Hands supports families with food security, welcomes visitors into a connected community, and gives volunteers meaningful purpose, all with a strong commitment to sustainability.

Helping Hands ensures dignity, food, and support are never out of reach.
