The facility is situated within close proximity to the community for them to access it easily. The villagers currently need to travel long distance to access some of the services. The MPCC has on offer offices for sector departments such as Health and SASSA, a computer lab, library, kitchen and ablution facilities, traditional authority council court, sports field for netball and a day care facility. Five villages within the local municipality will be able to conveniently access the facility for various activities and provide them with work opportunities.
