Want to see what has been happening at GoCo Gunnedah? Now you can. GoCo is inviting the community to look at its updated Community Care building that now reflects its vision for the future.

GoCo Executive Manager Bruce Mercer said the newly furbished Gunnedah headquarters at 80 Marquis Street marked a milestone in GoCo’s journey, and would be open for two functions, one for invited guests on Tuesday, 2 July and one for the community on Thursday, 4 July.

Invited guests and media will attend the Refurbished Community Care Building Official Opening from 1.30 to 3.30pm on Tuesday, 2 July. An opening for the community will be held between 10am and 2pm on Thursday, 4 July.

“This building is more than just a physical space,” Mr Mercer said.

“It symbolises inclusivity and accessibility and stands as testament to our collective ambition, vision and determination as a leader in the aged care industry.

“With its sustainable features and thoughtful design, it sets a benchmark for environmental stewardship and community engagement. It is a place where everyone, regardless of background or circumstance, can feel welcome.”

The two-year project is the culmination of a partnership between a huge team of people, from architects and engineers to project managers and community members who have all contributed their expertise and passion to achieving this milestone.

To celebrate the occasion, GoCo is holding an open day between 10am and 2pm on Thursday, July 4 when people can come along to see the transformation and meet other great service providers in town, from exercise physiologists to dieticians, a retirement village and a representative from Scooters and Mobility. GoCo’s community care finder will also be on hand for advice about aged care services.
