Multicap is proud to announce an exciting new community hub in Mackay. 
On 8 December, Former Origin Greats Gene Miles and Wendell Sailor will join Multicap CEO Joanne Jessop, to officially open the Multicap Mackay Hub.
To celebrate the arrival of this new and accessible community space, Multicap will open its doors to the people of Mackay and provide a free BBQ, special prize draws and the chance for everyone to have a chat with Gene Miles and Wendell Sailor, who will be available to sign autographs.
The Multicap Mackay Hub will become a key space for the Mackay community to gather, engage with one another, enjoy the Marina precinct and the broader Mackay region. The Hub will provide a platform to offer specialised Multicap activities for people with disability and their families, as well as the whole Mackay community.
Multicap CEO Joanne Jessop said, “The hub will welcome all members of the community, not just people with disability. Our new hub represents the commitment of Multicap to invest in the Mackay community, and provide a foundation on which we can deliver our sole purpose, ‘to enhance the quality of life of people with disability and their families’.
“The hub will provide a range of activities and opportunities to the Mackay community. The value of community involvement for people with disability is immeasurable. The friendships formed, the skills developed and the self-confidence gained from such activities and opportunities changes lives.”
Everyone is welcome at the Multicap Mackay Hub Open Day. Come along and enjoy a free BBQ and wonderful local entertainment and the chance to win Former Origin Greats signed jerseys, while you tour this exciting new community space.
