UnitingSA has replaced an outdated property in Kilburn with four modern townhouses to ensure more South Australians have access to long‑term, safe and affordable housing.

Background

The development is ideally located in an established community within a short walk from schools, shops and parks.

“I was feeling depressed and anxious before coming to Taperoo Community Centre and now I feel as though I belong for the first time in my life. The classes have helped me believe in myself and that I am capable of learning.”
