Balgowlah, NSW 2093

Pioneer Clubhouse is on Quirk Road in Balgowlah. We provide a safe, supportive, respectful environment for people living with mental illness.

It’s a place you can go to meet other people with lived experience of mental illness, take part in activities and find the help you need on your mental health journey.

Pioneer follows the Clubhouse model for recovery. This means that the staff and members manage it together and work side-by-side as colleagues doing administration work, running a kitchen and preparing meals (available at a small cost each day), maintaining the surrounds of the building, tending the vegetable garden, planning social activities and cleaning duties.

By taking part in the daily running of the Clubhouse members learn valuable skills and build the confidence to find work.

Pioneer Clubhouse is run by One Door Mental Health. Each member of Pioneer is welcome, wanted and expected to arrive each day.
