We're Donating $5,000 for the first 5,000 Voters and Donors on GiveBack Weekend! 

THE R.I.V.A. Project

We are a resource for adults with special needs in a community setting promoting integration. As part of our community integration our clients help in the café and charity shop giving them a sense of achievement and increasing their life skills.

We are also a charity providing subsidised, freshly prepared food at low prices for cross generational customers in a friendly, safe, community setting and are recognised as a welcoming space by the local Council. Customers range from mothers with babies to our oldest customer of over 90 years. Many of our customers are on low and fixed incomes and choose our café because we provide nutritional freshly prepared food at very low prices. We also have a charity shop which enables customers to buy good quality items at low prices in a restful unrushed environment. 

In all areas we operate with directly employed staff together with some volunteers gaining experience to enable them to build confidence and hopefully find employment.
