About Carindale Connect

Carindale Connect is run by a team of people who work and live in Carindale. The aim of the site is to showcase what a great and unique region we live in, and to encourage people to explore their area, do business with each other, and ensure that where a product or service is just up the road, that they are aware of it before venrturing further than they have to.

The site is not just for Carindale, as it aims to 'connect' surrounding suburbs - Carina, Mount Gravatt East, Mansfield, Belmont, Gumdale etc.

The site is non political, non denominational and has no outside funding. One of the main features of the site is the community blog.

Carindale is often referred to as a mini-CBD and this makes it very suited to an online hub to showcase, unite and bring together resources and people with business, clubs and associations.

Our main aims:

• Strengthen the sense of community in the neighbourhood.
• Provide a place for residents to find products, services, news and information.
• Help promote local businesses, associations and Carindale and surrounds in general.
• Provide genuine local content.
• Provide a community service.
