A Catchments Centre for Brisbane's Inner West

Brisbane City Council has allocated generous funds to provide accommodation for our organisation. It will be used as centre for our four catchments in Brisbane's Inner West!!! CWCN will move from The Hut where the available space given to us is by far not sufficient for our work. We look forward to meeting space, room for workshops and other educational activities, displays, seed propagation, sufficient storage for our equipment and so much more, all for the benefit of our catchments.

We thank the Lord Mayor, our previous local Councillor Jane Prentice (now Federal Member for Ryan), and the current Councillor for the Walter Taylor Ward, Mr Julian Simmonds for their immense support. We are also grateful to various Council departments especially LAS West for their help with this project.

An identified house (purchased by BCC under the Flood Buy-Back Scheme) will soon be moved to premises near the Cubberla Creek Reserve. All going well, we will occupy the house at the end of 2011. We appreciate that our successful work has been acknowledged. A catchment centre for our award winning organisation will certainly help us to further extend and improve our work and reach out to more community members.

THANK YOU!!!!
