Network moves, care continues

THE Monbulk Care Network (MCN) will soon be operating from a different premises for several months, but will still be offering the same renowned services and products.
This is great, considering their major aim is to help people in need.
MCN is in the process of a temporary move from 61/63 Main Road to 18 Main Road (opposite the primary school), while their premises is being rebuilt.
Administrator Bev Beazley said the organisation played an important role in the community.
“The care network sells good-quality second-hand goods, as well as fair trade and locally produced goods,” she said.
“All profits from the organisation are funnelled back into the community, which enables them to give assistance to those in need.”
The MCN is a mission of Open Door Community Church, which is staffed by volunteers from Open Door, as well as the general public.
Key to the organisation is their Support and Information Service (SIS), which provides material and financial assistance, including emergency food, for those in the community.
They also offer relevant information, when required.
Over the 20 years that MCN has operated in Monbulk, they have become renowned as being an organisation which cares about people and takes care of them.
