VOLUNTEERS are desperately looking for a new home for their not-for-profit womens group in Brunswick East. <\/p>\n
The Grove Wholistic Centre for Spirituality needs to leave its premises because the owner has other plans for the site. <\/p>\n
The centre, founded in 1991 in a building belonging to the Sisters of Mercy in The Grove, Coburg, moved to the Brunswick East terrace in 1996. <\/p>\n
Volunteer Michelle Morris, a counsellor and family therapist, said the centres founders developed a place that would empower and support women in a safe environment. <\/p>\n
The centre provides workshops and classes on meditation, music, craft, creative writing and spirituality among ongoing groups. <\/p>\n
It offers a place where women can feel safe and have a place as a retreat from the business of life to reflect, explore their creativity, their spirituality and to connect with other women, Ms Morris said. <\/p>\n
For women who might be isolated, it gives a sense of connection. <\/p>\n
She said they had been able to cheaply rent the terrace with an office, library, waiting area, counselling rooms and a group room. <\/p>\n
I am not confident about finding a new space, (but) I am confident that The Grove will go on in some form, Ms Morris said. <\/p>\n
If you can help, phone 9383 1993. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
