CENTRAL Bayside Community Health in Parkdale has been promised $7 million dollars from federal Labor if it wins the upcoming election. The promised funding would go towards children’s facilities in the centre.

The children’s centre would include facilities for occupational therapists, speech pathologists, and physiotherapists.

Central Bayside Community Health CEO Deb Stuart said “caring for and keeping the local community healthy is our priority. This investment will help with our commitment to expand child development services to meet community needs. Assisting more people and families to access affordable local child development services is welcome.”

Isaacs MP Mark Dreyfus said “this is a big win for local families, and I am delighted to announce this election commitment. This $7 million investment in Central Bayside Community Health is an investment in the future of our local community.”
