WHO ARE WE?

---

For over 20 years Grainery Care has been providing empowerment and support to the

people of the Hunter region. Having operated out of The Grainery Church and different rented properties in Mayfield and Islington, in 2020 we began the search for new premises in a location more central to the community we serve.

In 2020 we purchased an old bakery in Mayfield with the vision of turning it into a community centre. Through generous support from donors, skilled volunteers, and government-funded grant programs, we renovated & opened our purpose-built community center in 2023. Now home to:

• Food Hub - Our affordable grocery program
• Welfare services & Crisis support
• Cafe 252 - a community cafe with a Pay It Forward mission
• Free community breakfasts
• Meeting rooms for support groups
• Units for our Supported Accommodation Program

The Grainery Care Centre is a place for any one, in any walk of life, to come and find hope, dignity, and provision.
