Maryborough Correctional Centre

Maryborough Correctional Centre, located about seven kilometres north of Maryborough, is a multi-purpose, secure custody facility, that provides secure and residential accommodation.

The centre is also a remand and reception centre for offenders from Bundaberg to Gympie and accommodates protection prisoners.

The centre has four industry workshops - two metal fabrication workshops, one timber processing workshop and a textile workshop. These workshops not only provide employment for prisoners but also the fabrication of products for businesses and community organisations.

The centre also has a range of programs and educational courses designed to assist prisoners with their rehabilitation and reintegration.
