That Place Mackay hosted a successful Open Day for families and the community last Saturday, 20th September, offering a first-hand look at the local disability service provider’s programs and facilities.
Founded by local fathers Steve and Tim, who both have children with disabilities, That Place Mackay provides after-hours activities and safe, inclusive spaces for young people in the region. Free Saturday morning sessions allow participants of all ages and abilities to enjoy games, art, cooking, and social connection.
“It’s been fantastic… a really, really good turnout,” said Tim Gable, reflecting on the strong response as the venue quickly filled from the 9am start.
Mayor Greg Williamson, Member for Mackay Nigel Dalton, and Federal Member for Dawson Andrew Willcox attended the event to show their support.
The Open Day highlighted That Place Mackay’s commitment to families, providing opportunities for participants to learn new skills, connect with others, and enjoy a welcoming and inclusive environment.
