Liberals pledge $30k to finish Lazarus’ new home

Key points

• The Liberal Party has pledged $30,000 to complete the fit-out of the Lazarus Community Centre's new Myers Street facility in Geelong, should it win the state election. Liberal member for Western Victoria Bev McArthur announced the commitment on Saturday.
• The money would buy office furniture, dining tables, chairs and outdoor seating to finish a redevelopment that has taken more than four years. McArthur said the centre supports up to 80 people a day.
• The expanded site, about three times its previous size, offers showers, laundry, meals and social support seven days a week.
