We need a new home

From the Heart WA is on the move!!!

Our not for profit organisation working in the health sector is about to lose it's home in Subiaco as space is to be absorbed for leasor's business. Our current arrangement has been free of rental and overheads, although we are responsible for insurance and are looking for a similar situation.

The organisation has all infrastructure required and 3 part-time employees. We desperately seek an office space of approximately 50sqm and storage for resources in a central Perth location, for up to 3 years.

If you have office space available please contact Tracey Parker on Mob: 0427 615 858 to discuss further.
