Introduction
​
Our Homebase for the Veteran Community in Townsville is purpose-built to conduct activities and events that connect veterans and families with each other, and with the Townsville community. This is especially so for those who would otherwise find it difficult to access a location with other Veterans and those who understand the veteran community’s needs. We provide a range of activities, most free of charge to veterans and families.
​
Homebase is averaging over 1000 participants in connections activities each month.
​
We have developed procedures that ensure we can optimise the use of Homebase and keep the overheads of managing it as simple as possible for users and our Team Oasis Members.
​
We will also be opening up room hire spaces to whole of community supports in order to provide integration, collaboration and connectedness across whole of community so please remember to plan ahead and get in early to secure your space.​
​
Most of our spaces are available between 0730h to 2200h, 7 days, utilising a PIN code near the door for entry.
