Stronger Together, Resilient Forever - Murwillumbah CORE, Building Community Bonds

Hand in Hand, Heart to Heart – Building Resilience Together

We’re here to strengthen our community by creating a permanent, well-equipped, and inclusive space that provides support through every stage of disaster—before, during, and after.

Whether it’s preparing for emergencies, responding in times of crisis, or rebuilding stronger, our doors are always open to help the people of Murwillumbah.

Murwillumbah CORE

Murwillumbah CORE was born from the 2022 floods, when our community came together to coordinate volunteers, donations, and critical support.

Run by local volunteers, we’re committed to building a stronger, more resilient Murwillumbah—helping people prepare for, respond to, and recover from disasters.

Now, we’re focused on preparedness and resilience. With the help of grants, we’re equipping our community with essential tools, better coordination, and stronger support networks—ensuring we’re ready for whatever comes next

Current Project: Stronger Together - Resilient Forever

Goal: Train and support local micro-leaders in high-risk areas to improve disaster response and resource coordination.

How: This initiative is funded by the NSW Government’s Local Small Commitments Allocation Program – Lismore and is being implemented by Murwillumbah CORE.

Get Involved: We’re now accepting Expressions of Interest from community members who want to play a key role in strengthening local resilience.
