Community Programs

Working with Community

Community Kitchens operate across Gippsland and offer an alternative approach to promoting and developing healthy eating, personal skills and a social support network. A group of 6 – 10 people meet regularly to cook healthy low cost meals
For further information contact the Health Promotion Officer at Latrobe Community Health Service or Community Services at West Gippsland Health Care Group
