During World War II the Queensland Congregational Union considered caring for children evacuated from England until foster homes were found. To date no evidence has been found to confirm that this scheme was ever activated.
In 2013, the former Home is the site of the Frederick Marsden Youth Centre, a camp and conference facility. The centre was first established in 1929 as the Marsden Home for Boys by Mr Frederick Marsden.
