FORDE MP Bert van Manen met with Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull at Beenleigh yesterday to tour the Beenleigh and Districts Senior Citizens Centre.
The visit was arranged after the centre’s kitchen, which is used for Meals on Wheels food preparation, was upgraded thanks to a $90,000 Community Developments grant.
Prime Minister Turnbull and Mr van Manen also presented the centre with a $10,000 Stronger Communities grant cheque for IT upgrades.
A spokesperson for Mr van Manen said the Prime Minister had toured Queensland to visit infrastructure projects.
It is understood Prime Minister Turnbull travelled to the Sunshine Coast after visiting Beenleigh.
