Community Activities

Suncare Community Services welcomes customers and the local community to participate in daily events and activities. At Suncare we focus on developing personalised solutions to improve wellbeing and social connectivity within the community. 

Maroochydore Community Centre 

For customers living on the Sunshine Coast, our Maroochydore Community Centre offers a multitude of activities including walking groups, art groups, morning teas, luncheons and cinema outings. With our Suncare vehicles, customers can enjoy many of the Sunshine Coast’s natural attractions, iconic venues and other destinations.

“The centre is a hub for people who enjoy getting out of the house, trying new things and interacting with others.” 

About the Centre

This year Suncare is celebrating our 50th Anniversary. Suncare’s first service began as Meals on Wheels and then through extensive fundraising, Maroochydore Community Centre was established in George Street. Since 1987 the centre has provided support care and community activities for Sunshine Coast customers.

Since the beginning, we have grown to have a fleet of vehicles with a team of staff and volunteers who provide a variety of monthly activities. These activities are designed to support social interaction and community engagement.

How we can assist

We offer a variety of community activities daily so you can continue socialising and building friendships in the community.  

Our team encourage you to remain connected with the community and can assist you with transport to and from the centre.

  • Luncheons
  • RSL shows and events
  • Walking groups  
  • The Coffee Club visits
  • Arts and crafts workshops
  • Gardening
  • Cinema visits
