The market is an initiative of the Valla Beach Community Association to raise money for the protection, repairs and positive growth of Valla Beach along with creating an avenue for networking and bringing the community together for good times and great bargains.
The markets contribute funds towards projects many of which are located at Anderson Park. We have previously outlaid over $15,000 towards a childrens playground and seating, and have installed shading over the playground at a cost in the region of $26,500. A second seating area, including a cover, has also been installed and work was completed to improve the drainage on Anderson Park to make it much more usable after periods of rain. Cricket practice nets have been erected and the installation of netball/basketball courts is also complete.

Community Strategic Plan - Community Consultation - Our Valley, Our Future
VBCA would urge all residents to play a part in the formalisation of our Valley’s Community Strategic Plan that will help and guide what we, as residents of such a beautiful Valley, want to see over the next ten years.
Nambucca Valley Council is calling on community members to help shape the future of the region by providing input into the refresh of its Community Strategic Plan. The Plan:
- identifies the main priorities and aspirations of the community over the next ten years
- provides a clear set of objectives to achieve this vision.
It's not just a Council plan - it's the community's plan, and all levels of government, business, education, community groups and individuals have a role to play in achieving our vision for 2035.
Council wants to hear from people across the entire Nambucca Valley. Help shape our future by sharing your lived experiences, values, and hopes for the community over the next 10 years.
