Our Structure

Trudewind Road Neighbourhood House is managed by a volunteer Committee of Management and strives to maintain an open door policy and welcomes all members of the community.

Trudewind Road Neighbourhood House has developed a comprehensive network structure which includes involvement in the Upper Murray Regional Neighbourhood House Network (UMRNHN); Department for Planning and Community Development (DPCD); Adult Community and Further Education (ACFE); ANHLC and City of Wodonga (COW).  These structures ensure that the Neighbourhood House is kept informed and allows us to adapt to change in response to community need and enables us to participate in a range of activities particularly being active in democratic debate.

Our Neighbourhood House receives its core funding from DPCD.  Funding from ACFE enables us to provide educational courses at a low cost, and occasionally other grants are received.
