The Focus

Questions focused on community services, infrastructure, areas of strength and improvement

The VOW Statement:

I support the urgent allocation of funding to complete the new Warrawong Community Centre and Library at King Street, Warrawong. This vital project must be prioritised in the Wollongong City Council Infrastructure Plan to ensure that our community-one of the most under-resourced in the

region-has a safe, accessible, and purpose-built hub for essential services, connection, and support.

The former Warrawong Community Centre provided meals, mental health services, legal help, and more to thousands of people every year. Since demolition these vital resources are being provided from a temporary

premises and on a outreach basis – but we know this cannot be sustainable.

We need a Centre that reflects the strength, diversity,

and dignity of our community.

Please invest in Warrawong. Keep the heart of our suburb beating.

WRF has a sense of community, friendly staff; I’m not a number.

In Warrawong, young people like me learn from the community they live in,

and role models.

Love Warrawong! Diverse and Real!
