Membership
The Darling Range Hub is a initiative within the City of Kalamunda where we seek to support our valued senior citizens in continuing to live independently in their own homes for as long as possible. It provides members with access to trusted and vetted business referrals, through our Business Connect program, volunteer support, social and neighbour connection, and community engagement opportunities.
