A step in the right direction
North Richmond Community Health began supporting the Richmond community on Wurundjeri land in 1974. Then called the North Richmond Family Care Centre, it was an organisation built to support the diverse needs of the 4,000 strong community members of the Langdon Park Ministry of Housing estate.
A House Church meeting which moved between various flats gave rise to a community-lead Tenants Union. A group of progressive doctors approached the Tenants Union in the early 1970s, and together they came up with the idea of a health centre that didn’t just provide vital medical services, but also fostered and supported the community.
Since it was opened, North Richmond Community Health has been a place for people of all linguistic backgrounds, physical, emotional and mental abilities, faiths and cultures. For 40 years, the community has come to North Richmond Community Health to meet, receive care, seek advice, socialise and celebrate.
We have maintained an outstanding reputation for delivering culturally competent service, which is reflected in our values and mission statement:
