Redland Community Centre Inc
began in April 1990 as the Redland's Awareness Group Inc, under the
sponsorship and funding from Redland Shire Council. It commenced
operation as the Capalaba Neighbourhood Centre situated at 29
Loraine Street, Capalaba
Incorporation occurred in June
1992 and sponsorship changed from Redland Awareness Group to
Capalaba Community Centre Inc.
In June 1996 Capalaba Community
Centre was asked to "take over" Redland's Awareness Group (which was
previously auspiced by Redland Shire Council) at Cleveland, thus the
Cleveland Community Centre was established. After the takeover of
Redland's Awareness Group, the organisation then became incorporated
under the name of REDLAND COMMUNITY CENTRE INC.
