The Wee Waa Care Navigation Service, delivered by HealthWISE, will support community members living in Wee Waa, Pilliga, Gwabegar, Burren Junction, Rowena and surrounding areas.
The initiative was developed following the findings of the Wee Waa Community Health Survey conducted by RDN Health in late 2024, which identified that many community members were unsure how and where to access appropriate healthcare services.
The free service aims to make navigating the healthcare system easier by assisting individuals to connect with the right services and supports for their needs.
Burren Junction Progress Association member and farmer Steve Gardiner is calling on Walgett Shire Council to improve the management and maintenance of the town’s well-known bore baths, warning that their condition is affecting tourism, local businesses and community wellbeing.
“Not looking after the bore is hurting our community and tourism,” Mr Gardiner said.
Burren has been described as the ‘home of the bore baths’, which play a vital role in attracting tourists to the region.
For travellers following the popular Great Artesian Drive, the Burren bore baths and campground are marked as one of the places to stop along the way. The Great Artesian Drive is a road-trip route linking artesian bathing spots across North West NSW.
The naturally heated, mineral-rich waters offer travellers a relaxing soak after a day on the road, while the peaceful rural setting and open skies make it an inviting place to stop, unwind or have a chat with other visitors.
Locals also enjoy the benefits of the bore baths after a hard day at work or for a social catch-up.
They are located three kilometres from town, just off the Kamilaroy Highway.
