Elouera Surf Life Saving Club is celebrating the completion of a $800,000 upgrade, with $320,000 contributed by the NSW Government.
$300,000 of the work was funded through the Surf Club Facility Program, which assists surf life saving clubs across NSW to upgrade, restore and construct facilities. $20,000 was made available through the Community Building Partnership program, which funds local community groups to improve their facilities.
I’m delighted to see the newly completed ground floor facilities at Elouera.
Our surf lifesaving volunteers are committed to protecting our community, and it’s important they have fit-for-purpose facilities.
I congratulate the Elouera Surf Life Saving Club board for its vision of providing excellent facilities that help its volunteers feel valued.
Club volunteers will benefit from improved amenities, training room, administration office, first aid room and gymnasium.
The upgrade will help the club’s efforts to be inclusive for everyone, doubling the size of female amenities to provide more change room space for mums and children participating in the club’s programs.
There have also been improvements to accessible change rooms, which will make it easier for special needs nippers to participate.
The NSW Government has allocated $4 million for the next round of the Surf Club Facility Program, which is now open to applications from surf clubs.
More information about the Surf Club Facility Program is available at www.sport.nsw.gov.au/clubs/grants/SCFP

I joined former Tasmanian Premier Peter Gutwein at the Western Sydney Migrant Resource Centre Liverpool, as he set off on a seven day walk to Canberra.
His venture “The Walk, Better Together” aims to raise awareness of the contribution of migrants and refugees to Australia’s community, economy and culture, sharing positive stories with a clear message that we are all “better together” - a message as important as ever at a time of heightened community tension.

Hey Mark when do you think that it’s about time that the NSW SLSC’s are self sufficient and can trade as Licenced venues exactly the same as they are in QLD north of the border ??
29 September is National Police Remembrance Day, commemorated across Australia and the Pacific, honouring police officers who have died in the line of duty - a sad reminder of the risks police face every day to keep us safe.
On Friday I attended the service at the NSW Police Force Wall of Remembrance in the Domain, where 276 names are now inscribed on the wall.
I also attended an earlier and poignant local service at the NSW Police Memorial at Woronora Memorial Park Sutherland. ... See MoreSee Less
