A property that was home to young mothers and their babies for more than 100 years is for sale.
Financial difficulties forced the closure of Auckland's Bethany Centre in Grey Lynn last November.
The centre, which was owned and run by The Salvation Army, offered accommodation, education and support to pregnant young women, many of whom were high-risk teenage girls and women in their 20s who faced having their child removed by Child Youth and Family (CYF).
The ongoing cost of maintaining the 98-year-old and a declining number of referrals from CYF and District Health Boards contributed to the closure.
However, the Salvation Army said it would not turn its back on young pregnant women in need and work was underway to provide similar services to those offered by Bethany.
