In September this year the ChaplaincyWatch world-class Rest and Recovery Centre was officially opened at 9 Ocean Street, Maroochydore.
This space has been previously serving the Coast in a temporary capacity since New Year’s Eve 2019.
Many have already been cared for, supported, given a safe space to rest and assisted to get home in one piece.

You can walk in to the centre or call the NightWatch Chaplains who’ll come and give you a hand.
The NightSafe space features:
– 4 Rest and Recovery Beds

The NightSafe medic and NightWatch Chaplains are there for when it matters overnight in Maroochydore, Mooloolaba and Caloundra – don’t hesitate to contact them if the good times turn bad. They are doing amazing work in keeping our community safe and preventing potentially unsafe situations occurring, I can’t thank them enough.
