Fire Recovery Survey

December 19, 2019 By admin

The recent fires have had a huge impact on the region including our business community. A big thanks to all those who kicked the can at our various events this year we managed to raise $727 towards the Red Cross Fire Recovery throughout NSW. For those businesses affected by fire be sure to complete the NSW Small Business Commissioner’s Survey, which will be used to determine where support can be best directed. You can complete the Survey & find out where you can get support HERE.

December 19, 2019 By admin

The summer holidays on the Coffs Coast are a symphony of blue skies, blue water and outdoor fun – the perfect, natural environment for holiday-makers to visit or for locals to relax and reconnect with family and friends on a ‘stay-cation’.

Add a little more adventure and fun to your summer and become a tourist in your own backyard. It’s great to explore the beautiful Coffs Coast… and even better to share it with others!

Here are our top tips to help you experience more of this special part of the world:

Go to a tourist attraction you’ve never been to.
Jump online to coffscoast.com.au/play and you’ll find lots of ideas. There are fun parks, National Parks, marine parks, kid’s parks and everything in between.
Check out some videos for inspiration.
Soar over coastal headlands, learn what birds live where in our region, check out foodie trails, and lots more on vimeo.com/coffscoast.
Discover different aromas and flavours.
Eat out at a café or restaurant where you’ve never been before. From dinner at a heritage hotel in Dorrigo, to fish and chips by the beach in Sawtell – lots of local foodies are just waiting to welcome you!
Stay a night or two somewhere new.
Treat yourself to a holiday away… without the exhausting drive. Choose from Coffs Coast’s huge range, from beachside resorts and family-friendly holiday parks, to luxurious holiday rentals.

Get into vacation mode on your own or with an expert Drive to visit hinterland villages or along the iconic Waterfall Way, or join a tour to soak up the scenery by bike, bus, boat, paddleboard, surfboard, canoe or kayak!
Search #coffscoast on socials.
This is a great way to find new activities, places to visit, food to eat – find out what other locals and visitors are up to when they are out and about, and also share your favourite local discoveries.
Get your selfie on and share!

Planet Art Gallery looking for volunteers

November 29, 2019 By admin

Planet Art Gallery 
A lot of creative people like to feel connected in the community and to have space and time to focus on their creative endeavours. Here at Planet Art we’re putting a call out to anyone who could benefit from our centrally located, air conditioned space, surrounded by ever changing art to come and join our volunteer squad.

We’re a not-for-profit charity, so if you’ve ever considered vounteering and think you could utilise and enjoy your time at the gallery – whether that be making art, or a quiet space to focus on life admin and at the same time, open our doors, have a chat to visitors and encourage the community to experience local art and provide opportunities to artists to exhibit their work…..then we’d love to hear from you.


Please get in touch if you’re interested and could commit to a day a week or alternatively if you’d like to go on our ’emergency’ list and help us out when another volunteer is unable to make it in… that’s cool too!
Call, message or just drop into the gallery to discuss the possibilities

Lawyers offer legal aid to Bushfire victims

November 28, 2019 By admin

Media Release Wednesday, 27 November 2019
Legal Aid NSW lawyers will give free legal advice and support to hundreds of people affected by the recent bushfires.
Attorney General Mark Speakman praised Legal Aid NSW’s (LANSW) history of providing legal assistance to people affected by bushfires.
“The LANSW Disaster Response Service team stands ready to provide legal assistance that covers a range of issues, including insurance claims, tenancy, credit and debt, financial hardship, social security entitlements and employment,” Mr Speakman said.

He said lawyers would form part of the wide range of assistance available at LANSW offices at Port Macquarie and Coffs Harbour and outreaches at Forster, Kempsey, Taree, Bowraville, Grafton, Macksville, and Nambucca.

Fires in northern NSW this year have destroyed or damaged more than 670 homes and left many hundreds of people facing the challenge of rebuilding their lives.
Legal Aid NSW CEO Brendan Thomas said that civil lawyers from the Disaster Response Service were specialists in areas of law such as insurance, debt, tenancy, social security and financial hardship.
“All of our solicitors providing help at these locations have undergone training about what to expect,” Mr Thomas said.
“This is important work at a difficult and stressful time in people’s lives, so part of the training is about how best to respond to the trauma experienced by those affected by bushfires.

“Having an experienced advisor to help you navigate through legal issues can significantly reduce trauma and pave the way to rebuilding lives.”
Free legal advice is available to anyone affected by a natural disaster. For more intensive casework, a means and merit test is applied. Victims of natural disasters are considered priority clients. The LawAccess NSW Disaster Response Hotline is 1800 801 529 or visit www.legalaid.nsw.gov.au. Guidelines for what to do after bushfires can be found here.
