Waroona Community Car

 

The Waroona Community Car was established in 1995 by a group of dedicated local residents, operating under the auspices of the Waroona Senior Citizens Welfare Inc. The initial vehicle was funded through a grant from the WA Lotteries Commission, and the service has since been sustained through a combination of fundraising, donations, and additional grant funding.

 

The Community Car provides transport support to residents of the Shire of Waroona, helping them attend medical and hospital appointments. The service is coordinated by the Waroona Community Resource Centre and is made possible by a team of volunteer drivers.
