About Camden Community Connections (CCC)

Founded in 1988 Narellan/ Camden Neighbourhood Centre (as it was then) was started when a group of mothers decided they were tired of having no community services and facilities in the town. The six women formed a committee to lobby for a Community Centre and succeeded.
A couple of name changes later Camden Community Connections (CCC) is still going strong, bringing the community together by providing a range of activities and services for residents and businesses in the Camden local government area.

We are run by a management committee who are all members of the local community with paid staff running the day to day operations.

CCC is an independent organisation and has no religious or political affiliations.

CCC's Annual General Meeting was held on 2 November 2011.
