Social infrastructure is the fabric of our community. It refers to the places and spaces that bring us together; where we make friends, stay active, learn new skills and access important services.

"For many of us, these places are like our second home."

Remarkably, the City of Greater Geelong provides over 865 indoor and outdoor community places and spaces, including sporting facilities, playgrounds and parks, leisure centres, community halls, libraries, neighbourhood houses and much more.

As Geelong’s population grows, and through trying times such as these as our community deals with the impacts of Covid-19, these places will become more important than ever in helping us maintain the lifestyle and strong sense of community connection this region has always enjoyed.

The new Social Infrastructure Policy and Plan marks a journey to a new way of working and is aimed at ensuring our future decision making and investment in community infrastructure and services is clear, fair, equitable, and based on evidence of need and insights from our community. We want to ensure we’re providing access to places, spaces and services where and when people need them the most.

We now invite you to explore our new way of working and what is planned for the place where you live; then please take a moment to tell us what you think.
