Centenary House offers low-cost accommodation for patients undergoing treatment at Latrobe Regional Hospital and their families. -Frustrated by lack of access to WiFi services for the Gippsland tourist town of Fish Creek, the ladies of the Fish Creek Tea Cosy Festival reached out to us for help. As a result, we ve established a free public WiFi network in Fish Creek. By providing a WiFi network, we are helping to support tourism and small business in regional Victoria. The Tea Cosy Festival attracts approximately 5,000 people over the 2 days In the last 12 months we ve established partnerships with several organisations that meet our community impact statement, are having a major impact, and are not necessarily well-known.
