Here they could still talk lingo, continue traditional practices and keep their relationships with the cultural landscape. Yarrawarra Aboriginal Corporation was established at Corindi Beach in the 1980’s with the base membership of local Gumbaynggirr people retaining cultural continuity expressed through stories and events associated with specific sites in the local landscape. Its aim was to yield economic, social and cultural opportunities for the Aboriginal community based at Corindi Beach. Lot 170 Red Rock Road was purchased from the CHDLALC to establish a Cultural center and leased another segment of land to grow vegetables and establish a workshop. These important rivers make up segment of the dreaming’ and are the dividing line between language groups. Yarrawarra has also established a range of partnerships with government agencies and is deeply involved in cultural land management. Yarrawarra has constructed walkways, conducted weed handle and re vegetation, as well as cultural research and education projects. The Darby Elders have been extremely active with NeWS and other cultural land management agencies ensuring that cultural places and landscapes are protected and cared for. Yarrawarra focuses on Aboriginal and Islander people maintaining their Cultural Heritage and integrity and in turn gives a notable gift to the rest of the world. The Yarrawarra Aboriginal Cultural center is proud to be open to the public so they can learn about and enjoy the unique Gumbaynggirr culture.
