The Heathcote Valley Community Association (HVCA) supports and promotes our community. Its core business is to provide representation, acting as an important link between the elected members on the City Council and the Community Board, and the community. The HVCA facilitates input into important Council policies by drawing local resident’s attention to key issues, giving opportunities to connect and engage with our community.
The HVCA meets on the first Thursday of the month. If you would like to hear about what is happening in our community, then come along to one of our meetings held at the Heathcote Valley Community Centre, 45 Bridle Path Road.
The Committee meets at 6.30pm to address Association business, and from 8pm we discuss wider community ideas, issues and actions.
Everyone is welcome to attend from either 6.30pm or 8pm. We ask that if you have something you’d like to specifically speak about from 8pm, that you email Jen hvcc.bookings@gmail.com prior to ensure we can reserve a speaking slot.
