A new HOPE Hub is planned for Orion Springfield Central, with a dedicated support service set to assist people affected by domestic and family violence.
Expanding Access To Local Support
The HOPE Hub will be established at Orion Springfield Central and is scheduled to open in early 2026. It will be the first of three new hubs supported under a $7.8 million funding package allocated across five years, with two additional locations expected to open during the 2026–27 period.
The Springfield Central site is intended to provide a central access point for support services within a well-used retail environment, allowing people to seek assistance in a familiar and discreet setting.
Services And Delivery Model
The hub will be operated by Beyond DV, a community-based organisation that supports victim-survivors of domestic and family violence. The service model focuses on wrap-around support, including trauma-informed programs and pathways to social, health, housing, legal and financial assistance.
Locating the hub within a shopping centre is designed to reduce barriers to access by providing a safe and private entry point for people seeking help.
Building On An Established Approach
The Springfield Central hub follows an existing HOPE Hub model that has been operating in Brisbane for several years. The model brings multiple recovery-focused services together in one location, enabling people to access information, referrals and longer-term support through a single service point.
Services are expected to be available seven days a week once the hub becomes operational.
Community Response
Management at Orion Springfield Central has welcomed the introduction of the HOPE Hub, noting its role in providing a safe and inclusive space to address domestic and family violence and related wellbeing concerns within the Springfield community.
What Happens Next
Planning and site preparation for the Springfield Central HOPE Hub will continue ahead of its early 2026 opening. Once operational, the hub will form part of a broader network of HOPE Hubs designed to improve access to recovery and support services for people affected by domestic and family violence across Queensland.
