The Warialda CWA is a vital part of the local community and Member for Northern Tablelands Brendan Moylan was proud to deliver funding from the Community Building Partnership program to the group’s hall so members and the wider public can continue to use the facility.
Mr Moylan secured $36,172 from the CBP program for the Warialda CWA so a wheelchair access point can be constructed at the hall.
“The Warialda CWA is a group of dedicated volunteers who play a key role in the community in bringing their members together to connect, fundraise, and assist however needed,” Mr Moylan said.
“The CWA’s hall is a central point for the entire town and outside visitors with other activities such as playgroup and community event all using it.
“At the moment access is difficult for people in a wheelchair and there is no adult change table in Warialda at all so having these at the hall will be a huge benefit for anyone within the town who wishes to use them.
“I am glad to be able to deliver this funding to the Warialda CWA for the whole community to benefit.”
Warialda CWA president Libby Cotter said there’s limited disabled facilities within the town and said the whole community has been supportive of the hugely beneficial project.
“The community would benefit as there are few disabled facilities in the town,” she said.
“We are hoping that it will be used by the community and those visiting our rooms.
“We are very thankful for this grant as we would not be able to raise it in the future; we are an ageing group of women but some of us work at the rooms selling used clothing and other items. This keeps us busy, and our bills covered.”
