Brighton Recreational Centre is a member of the Bayside Cluster of Community Centres. If the course you are looking for is not run or not available at Brighton Rec Centre, you may find it at one of the other Centres.
Hidden Disabilities Sunflower
Brighton Recreational Centre has joined the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower to support people with disabilities that may not be immediately visible, such as autism, dementia, mental health issues or learning difficulties. People can choose to wear a lanyard bearing a sunflower logo as a subtle way of letting others know that they have a non-visible disability and may require additional support, assistance or a bit more time. Sunflower lanyards and badges are available from our reception desk.
Brighton Recreational Centre would like to thank the Bayside City Council for their contribution to enable us to support this important program.
