Mayor of Camden, Cr Theresa Fedeli, said providing opportunities for local young people was high on the agenda for Council.

“Local young people are the future of our area and it is important for them to feel comfortable to be able to express themselves, and Julia Reserve Community Centre is the perfect place for them,” Cr Fedeli said.

“The centre is quickly becoming the go-to place for young people to go and meet friends, hang out and simply have some fun.

“Providing information on youth mental health is also important and we are lucky enough to be able to help offer that at a number of the planned events.

“Spotlite allows our talented artists and musicians to show off their talents. We know the challenges local young people have faced in being able to perform like this, so I hope they take advantage of what we can now offer in the Camden area.”
