Hush Booths
We are delighted to have our three new Hush Booths in situ. They are located in the green room, Unit 5, and the link connection to allow a level of privacy while making calls and video conferencing. This was all made possible from funding received through the connected hubs Call through the Department of Rural and Community Development and the KIC. The KIC is continuing an investment program in the Centre to upgrade and add to the Centres facilities.
