Community

At Westfield, we know our centres are more than just shopping hubs. They are lifestyle destinations where people come to connect, share and inform. Our centres are safe and welcoming, and we engage with our communities through a host of programs and services including the following:

Westfield Local Heroes

Every year we shine a spotlight on individuals who make a positive impact to their local community or environment and provide more than $1.2 million in grants to support their work to grow. Westfield Local Heroes are nominated and voted by their communities, and they represent a diverse range of sectors. This year, Westfield will award one Westfield Local Hero per Westfield centre a $20,000 grant for the organisation or group they represent. Two finalists for each centre will receive a $5,000 grant for their organisation or group.

To learn more about the program, visit the Westfield Local Heroes website. Or meet your Coomera Local Heroes alumni by clicking on each year: 2022, 2021 2020, 2019.

Community partnerships

We partner with many local groups and individuals to showcase those things that are relevant to the community; and we work with key leaders to recognise and help address challenges facing the local area. If you would like to understand more about our community engagement partners and activities, please get in touch by referring to the 'contact us' information on this page. You can also read our Responsible Business Report here.

Contributing to our local communities

We provide a dedicated space in all Westfield centres for community-focused groups (i.e. not-for-profit sports groups, community groups, charities and welfare organisations) to connect with people in the local area.

Meanwhile, our staff are passionate about giving back and we support them to do this in a variety of ways through Workplace Giving and Volunteering. For more information on any of our programs or services, please email us.

The Community Hub

At Westfield Coomera, we prioritise the importance of connecting and enriching our community. Through this, we created a dedicated space for the community to access called, The Community Hub. This space is an exclusive area for community-focused groups to come together including; not-for-profits, community groups, charities, welfare organisations, schools and more. This space can be booked by members of the community and will include a projector, tables, chairs, whiteboards and more.

At a local level, we regularly collaborate with youth and youth services, we engage with schools and run events throughout the year to entertain and educate young people.

Westfield Walkers Coomera

Lovers of window shopping will be pleased to know that window browsing can be good for your health.

Westfield Coomera provides a safe environment which enables walkers to get active; rain, hail or shine. Walkers who are new to physical activity or are recovering from a health issue will enjoy being able to walk on a smooth surface with no obstacles. Walkers are encouraged to walk at their own pace and have access to amenities.

The Westfield Walkers meet at Signature Cafe, located near Kmart and walk laps around the shopping centre every Monday, Wednesday and Thursday morning at 7am.

The JP’s in the Community Program is a free community service, staffed by volunteers and supported by Queensland’s Department of Justice and Attorney-General. The program provides access for the community for consistent and reliable witnessing services. JP services are available in The Community Hub, located externally just behind H&M, each Wednesday from 10am – 2pm and Friday 10am - 2pm.

Community Site

The Community Site is provided free of charge to approved community focused groups for the purpose of raising awareness of programs or groups whose primary intent is one of community benefit such as not for profit sports groups, community groups, charities and welfare organisations. The site is located near the front of Priceline Pharmacy at the northern end of the mall.

Quiet Time

Westfield Coomera aims to create an inclusive environment for all customers and offer a shopping experience where all customers feel welcomed and valued.

Through our Quiet Time initiative, we look to make a difference to those who face the challenge of shopping in a high sensory environment. Quiet Time takes place every Tuesday from 10:30am - 11:30am.

During Quiet Time, we will dim the lighting and adjust our music to limit sensory over stimulaton. Many of our retailers will also participate by dimming their lights, lowering their music and creating special offers just for Quiet Time.
