Jessica Smith and Alex Prujean are donating their skills as Landscape Architects! They will provide a design for the entrance and carpark in anticipation of the new Featherston Medical Centre being built next door. This young couple are looking forward to contributing their talents to Featherston.

Dr Harsha Dias has drawn up the plans for a new medical centre with 5 consulting rooms. This new building will be located on the vacant lot next to our carpark. All patients will access the Medical Centre from the Community Centre's entrance on Wakefield Street. Our large carpark will be redesigned by Jessica and Alex to accomodate the parking needs for both buildings as well as the needs of pedestrians, bicyclists, scooters, prams and mobility scooters. In addition, space for shade and seating will be provided.

This is an exciting opportunity for the Centre. The partnership will make the Centre more vibrant and offers the community a chance to create a coordinated area focused on Wellness and Community.
