Who we are

Our community is a vibrant and close-knit group of Cypriots and friends of Cyprus who have come together in the Northern Suburbs of Melbourne to celebrate our culture, heritage, and strong sense of community. We take pride in our rich history and diverse sub-groups that make our community thrive.

Our History:

The Cyprus Community Northern Suburbs Melbourne (The Community of Cypriots of the Northern Suburbs Melbourne) was founded in July 1991 to serve the social and cultural welfare of the thousands of Cypriots residing in the Northern Suburbs of Melbourne. On 4 August 1991, more than two hundred Cypriots took part in the inaugural elections to select nine from the total fifteen candidates as members of the Committee, who afterwards would appoint their executive committee.

What We Do:

We celebrate our rich cultural heritage and foster a supportive environment for all members. We offer a variety of programs and services that strengthen our community ties and promote well-being. From recreational activities through the Mill Park Soccer Club to educational opportunities at Panhellenic College, we cater to all ages. Our dedicated aged-care facilities ensure our seniors are cared for with dignity and respect. Additionally, our Ladies Auxiliary and Senior Citizens Group provide essential support networks, hosting events and gatherings that enrich our community life. Together, we create a vibrant space where Cypriots and friends of Cyprus can thrive.

Our Purpose:

Over the years, we have developed a robust framework that includes the Mill Park Soccer Club, dedicated aged-care facilities, the Panhellenic College for language and cultural education, and various social groups such as the Ladies Auxiliary and Senior Citizens Group. Each of these components plays a vital role in nurturing a strong sense of belonging and community spirit among our members. As we look to the future, we remain committed to preserving our heritage while adapting to the needs of our community. United by our love for Cyprus and the values we uphold, we strive to create a welcoming space for all, where traditions are cherished, and friendships are forged.
