On 1st November 2022, 'SpacetoCo' the new bookings system for Community Venues went live, allowing hirers to see the availability of community centres for hire and book online.
All community centres are now available to be viewed and booked for fundraising events, wind-ups/presentations, and other events and can be found at Spaces Hosted by City of Cockburn - Recreation Services | SpacetoCo
Hirers need to register to become a verified user to be able to use the system, which will also be for all seasonal hire of sports reserves. Bookings can only be accepted when hirers have been approved as a verified user, which includes providing payment details.
