The proposed first major project is to build 10 small homes suited to older and disabled local people in Winchelsea. Many senior members of our community are downsizing, selling their homes and wanting to enjoy a more relaxed lifestyle with all our fabulous community has to offer.
However, in doing so they are faced with the reality that Winchelsea does not have sufficient quality, affordable village lifestyle accommodation. Long-term residents are having to move away, leaving behind family, friends, their social lives and connections.
The Winchelsea Village aims to fill this void. It will be state-of-the-art in design and beautifully landscaped. The site will be managed in conjunction with Hesse Rural Health
Community consultation is underway to investigate the option of Surf Coast Shire providing the land for the project, on an ideal site on Harding Street / Hopkins Street. Proceeds from the project would be available to fund further community projects (of any nature).
