Hotel Cunnamulla

The Bureau of Meteorology has indicated that the Paroo Shire may experience some severe weather over the next week with the potential for storms including high winds and heavy rain.
Can everyone please plan ahead and help us protect our community by:

• Securing any items in your yard that may be a flight risk, such as trampolines, outdoor furniture, roofing sheets etc.
• Assemble an emergency kit in case there is a loss of power or roads are cut. This will include food and water supplies, ensuring phones are charged and if you have a generator, you have fuel.
• Park vehicles under cover -away from trees, powerlines and creeks, and cover them with firmly tied-down blankets if hail occurs
• Unplug electrical items – including aerials and computer equipment to avoid power surge damage if lightening occurs.
• Remain off our unsealed road network to protect the road surface until the roads have had a chance to dry out. This may involve delaying a journey for a day but that extra day will help the road surface from being severely damaged.
• Do not drive on closed roads and if it is flooded forget it.

Finally, do not forget to check in with family, friends and neighbours, especially anyone who might need extra support.
Hopefully, we will not be impacted too much but if we plan ahead, we will be ready for what nature decides is coming our way.
To keep informed please sign up to the Paroo Disaster Dashboard where all road closures and other important information will be updated.

We need your support. Cunnamulla needs aged care services, and now is the time to make our voices heard. 📢💙

The Department of Health, Disability and Ageing is hosting an Aged Care Community Forum right here in Cunnamulla, and this is our community's chance to stand together and speak up. Our elders deserve to age in the town they call home, close to family, friends and everything familiar, not forced to move hours away just to access the care they need.

If you've felt the impact of limited aged care access in our region, whether personally, through a loved one, or in the wider community, this forum is where that story needs to be told. The more of us who turn up and speak up, the stronger our message.

📅 Monday, 12 October 2026
🕐 1:00pm to 3:00pm
📍 Kookaburra Room, Civic and Community Enterprise Centre, 49 Stockyard Street, Cunnamulla

💬 RSVP by emailing [email protected] or calling 07 2114 0316, include your name, contact details and any organisation you represent.

Let's rally together and show just how much aged care in Cunnamulla truly matters.

Former truckies Simon and Karen Hawker know what drivers want, so when they took over the Wyandra Hotel in Queensland, one of the first things they did was upgrade the showers.
