Historical information
On August 10, 1927 the first Bendigo Home for the Blind was opened in Long Gully. Housing 18 people, it was acquired by the Association for the Advancement of the Blind, and located in Bennett Street. In 1934 the committee looked at extensions to cope with demand, however the cost proved to be too great and instead a property in Inglewood Road was obtained in 1935.
