Message from our president

                           We are grateful for Olive Johnston, who,
                           opened her home to local at-risk youth.
                           Over the years, the services she offered local youth grew and adapted
                           to suit their changing needs. Her services to the community later became
                           what we now know as St Kilda PCYC. Throughout that time, her vision has
                           remained constant - to empower youth for life.

                           St Kilda PCYC is a vital community hub that works with people across
                           all ages and over the last few years we have seen some changes to our
                           operations as we have adapted to the changing regulatory and operating
                           environment that we work within.

                           In 2017, we started the conversation of change with our club members,
                           staff and community through our stakeholder survey. The results from
                           survey were used to inform a strategic analysis of our business, programs
                           and operating environment and we are proud to present our first-ever
                           Strategic Plan that sets out our roadmap for the next three years.

                           It has been over 70 years since Olive first opened her home as a hub for
                           youth and with your continued support, we hope to build on that legacy
                           of empowering youth while at the same time creating a vital community
                           hub that will continue to support all locals now and into the future.

                           Charlie McFadden
                           President

           INDUSTRY CHARACTERISTICS - In
           the inner Melbourne area there are
           two general models for the fitness
           industry, either providing small
           group/individual fitness classes or
           high quality equipment focus that
           is available across most or all of a
           24 hour period. There is a consumer
           demographic not as well served by
           these models and that is the focus of
           St Kilda PCYC business and program
           growth across the life of the Strategic
           Plan. St Kilda PCYC club members
           value the bespoke club facilities and
           inclusive community ‘feel’.

           Many of the youth programs
           are funded through successful
           application for Grants, resulting from
