After experiencing flood damage, the community hall in Crabbes Creek will undergo a transformative upgrade to enhance its resilience and usability. The renovation will focus on implementing flood-resistant materials and design elements to reduce the impact of future flood events.

The refurbishment will embrace access and inclusion by incorporating features such as ramps, accessible amenities, accessible car park and linking pathways, ensuring that the hall remains welcoming to all members of the community. The addition of an accessible public toilet will offer essential amenities for visitors and users of the Northern Rivers Rail Trail.

Following the upgrade, the Crabbes Creek Community Hall will be ready to serve as a safe and inclusive space for gatherings, events, and activities for years to come.
