HOPE Hub opens at Mirvac’s Orion Springfield Central

Located within Mirvac’s Orion Springfield Central, the HOPE Hub is a purpose driven space designed to provide guidance, connection and access to support services for individuals impacted by domestic and family violence. Delivered in partnership with local charity Beyond DV, the Hub brings together a network of community organisations to offer a coordinated and holistic approach to support.

The official opening was attended by Queensland Minister for Child Safety and the Prevention of Domestic and Family Violence, Amanda Camm, alongside Ipswich Mayor Teresa Harding, highlighting the importance of the initiative and its role in supporting the local community.

Mirvac Orion Springfield Central Portfolio Manager Melanie Hodge said the opening reflects the centre’s role as a trusted community destination.

"Orion Springfield Central sits at the heart of the local community, and we are proud to support an initiative that provides meaningful, practical support for those who need it most," Ms Hodge said.

"This is about using our space for purpose, ensuring individuals can access help in a safe, welcoming and familiar environment."

The HOPE Hub provides access to a range of integrated support services, including mental health support, practical assistance and pathways to housing, legal and financial advice. Designed to be approachable and discreet, the space offers a safe environment where individuals can seek support, ask questions and connect with trained professionals.

Beyond DV Founder and Managing Director Carolyn Robinson said the Hub plays a vital role in making support more accessible for those who need it most.

"Having the HOPE Hub located within Orion Springfield Central helps make support more visible, approachable and accessible for people who may otherwise never seek assistance," Ms Robinson said.

"The HOPE Hub model is designed to remove barriers by creating a safe environment where people can walk in, ask questions and access practical help provided by trained staff."

Ipswich Mayor Teresa Harding said the investment will make a meaningful difference for local families.

"Ipswich is one of Queensland’s fastest growing regions, and it is important that our community can access essential support services close to home," Mayor Harding said.

"This Hub provides a central, accessible location where people can connect with the help they need as they rebuild their lives."

The delivery of the HOPE Hub has been made possible through strong collaboration between partners and community contributors. Donated materials and services played a key role in bringing the space to life, reflecting the collective commitment to supporting the community.

Staffed seven days a week, the HOPE Hub will play an important role in connecting individuals with tailored support, reinforcing Orion Springfield Central’s ongoing commitment to fostering inclusive, resilient communities.
