Roomers provides weekly writing workshops, aiming to give residents:

• an outlet to publish their creative work;
• the opportunity and incentive to improve literacy, creative and communication skills;
• access to a skilled mentor;
• access to current agency information from a resident perspective;
• a means of reducing social isolation and encouraging community participation

Almost all contributors to Roomers are local residents or ex-residents of rooming houses, private hotels or supported residential services in St Kilda, South and Port Melbourne.

• Workshops run at Elwood Neighbourhood House on Tuesdays from 10.30am – 12.30pm
• To participate you will need to make an appointment with the Roomers Facilitator. You can do this by contacting us via email or phone using the details below.
