Nillumbik Youth Hub

The Nillumbik Youth Hub is an inclusive and safe space in Diamond Creek designed specifically for young people. The Youth Hub is a welcoming community space where young people can drop in casually or participate in programs and services. It’s built to support their wellbeing, creativity and growth, while also making sure there is plenty of opportunities to have fun and connect with others.

Anyone aged 12 (or in Grade 6) through to 25 years old is welcome during our opening hours.

Schools, services, parents and guardians with inquiries are encouraged to reach out via email to youth@nillumbik.vic.gov.au or call the team on 9433 3728.

There’s plenty for young people to enjoy and get involved in at the Youth Hub including:

· Playing board games, pool, foosball, PS5 and Nintendo Switch

· Using free WiFi or accessing computers

· Connecting with support services

· Checking out the jobs board

· Getting careers support

· Chilling with friends or meeting new people

· And most importantly—having fun! We also run a Board Masters and an Art Club program, click the links to learn more about these programs.

The space is run by Nillumbik Shire Council Youth Workers, and the Hub opens only when two or more staff members are on site to ensure a safe and welcoming environment.

Local youth services also use the space on different days. If you’re looking to meet with a particular service or support provider, you can reach out to arrange a time. Some services currently available at the Youth Hub include: healthAbility, Headspace and Gamblers Help.
