A funding allocation for Queensland Scouts and Girl Guides will deliver accessibility improvements for the Aspley Scout Den as part of broader upgrades supporting multiple facilities across several communities.
Aspley Works Included In Wider Facility Program
On 20 November 2025, more than $1.7 million was directed toward improvements for 10 local groups linked to Scouts and Girl Guides. This includes six Scout groups, three Girl Guides units and one Scout camp.
Aspley forms part of the program through planned accessibility works for its Scout Den, identified alongside other facility upgrades across Queensland.
Upgrades Planned Across Multiple Locations
The program includes a refurbishment of the kitchen at the Mount Gravatt Girl Guides Hall and facility upgrades for Girl Guides units in Moggill and the Kenmore District.
Additional works cover improvements to Scout halls in Helensvale and Dayboro, as well as refurbishments for Scouts in Moggill, Karana and Kenmore.
New machinery will also be delivered to Seeonee Park Scout Camp in Rockhampton to support its ongoing activities.
The Aspley Scout Den will receive accessibility-focused improvements aimed at ensuring the facility remains functional, safe and suitable for continued community use.
Supporting Local Activities And Youth Participation
Scouts and Girl Guides provide structured programs that encourage outdoor engagement, skill development and community involvement. Facilities such as the Aspley Scout Den support regular activities throughout the year, including meetings, camps, skills-based learning and outdoor programs.
The improvements are expected to assist current participants while helping encourage future involvement among young people across the region.
Community Benefits And Next Steps
Communities linked to each upgraded site are expected to benefit from more accessible and better-maintained spaces. These improvements aim to support long-term usage, ensure safe participation environments and sustain ongoing programs.
Once completed, the works across Aspley and the other identified locations will help these groups continue offering activities and experiences for young members.
