Redevelopment Project

For 35 years our kitchen has continued to serve our community, however, over time and with a regular numbers of guests, it is crucial that we upgrade our space to enable St Canice’s to operate for decades to come.

The St Canice’s Kitchen & Community Hub Redevelopment aims to expand and modernise our existing facilities to meet the growing community need for our services. By transforming the kitchen into a multi-purpose community hub, we will not only increase our capacity to serve free nutritious meals to over 300 guests daily but also integrate essential support services. And provide a space for community events.

We will reimagine the grounds of St Canices Parish to become a thriving community precinct known as St Canice Quarter.
