Who we are

Support without judgment.

We assist anyone — especially young people — to overcome barriers to learning, working and enjoying life in Mount Isa and Cloncurry.

Our story

From a secret café’s red door to a regional charity.

RedDoor started quietly in 2015 and was formally established in 2017. The name has a simple origin: in the early days our café was almost a secret, tucked away with an old red exit door beside it. Word spread around Cloncurry, and whenever people asked how to find us, the answer was the same — “go in through the red door.” The name stuck. Our official registered name is Multiskill Centre Ltd.

We are a registered Not-For-Profit Charity. We are not religious or political, and we treat all people with respect and dignity regardless of who they are or where they have come from in life.

We believe in the value of a work routine. We focus on helping young people get an education, gain meaningful work skills, and genuinely enjoy the community they live in.

What guides us

Our values

Dignity & respect

Everyone is treated with respect and dignity, no matter their background or story.

The value of work

A good routine and real work skills build confidence and open doors to independence.

Community belonging

We help people enjoy and take part in the remote and regional communities they call home.

Directional Committee

RedDoor is guided by a Directional Committee of local people who help make decisions that have local impact — giving guidance and advice, and keeping the people we support at the centre of everything we do.

Where we work

Proudly North West Queensland.

We operate on Kalkadoon country in Mount Isa and Mitakoodi country in Cloncurry. We understand the unique challenges faced by those living in remote and regional Queensland, and we design our support around them.
