Wollongong Council is planning a new, integrated Community Centre and Library in the Helensburgh town centre to service current and future needs of residents. This long-term project has been informed by the many conversations we've had with the Helensburgh community about its priorities, heritage, streetscape, town centre, library and community centre.

We're working to find the best location for the new facility. As this will take time, we're checking in with the community now, to share what we've heard previously about library and community centre needs, and to ask whether this holds true for the combined facility. Did we miss anything? Do you have additional thoughts inspired by this new opportunity? Your feedback will help inform the development of a concept design, which will be created once a location has been confirmed. There'll be more opportunities to join the conversation on this project as it progresses.
