Important COVID-19 Update Central Coast Council have decided to postpone all non-essential face-to-face engagement activities in accordance with the latest government requirements. Best practice at this time is about ensuring we’re protecting everyone’s health first and foremost, while doing what we can to minimise the immediate and long-term impacts on our services and program delivery. As such we have made the unfortunate decision to cancel, postpone and where possible to arrange alternative delivery of programs and events. As a result, Council will temporarily close community centres and community halls for hire. This means that all regular users, including dance and exercise groups, craft, meetings, support groups, playgroups etc, will be cancelled until further notice.
The closure will not apply to essential community based services which may continue to operate, however Council recommends each service provider continually review their operational models to ensure social distancing practices are being adhered to and that advice from NSW Health is followed www.health.nsw.gov.au/Infectious/diseases/Pages/coronavirus.aspx.
This closure will take effect from close of business on Monday, 23 March 2020.
We will keep you updated as things progress.
At The HUB Erina you will find a wide variety of shows, events and programs running all year round. A youth centre by day and an entertainment venue by night.
