Welcome to Burnie Works
Burnie Works exists to help the Burnie community make changes that improve lives. We do this by walking alongside the community,
ensuring every voice, no matter how quiet, is valued and heard in our mission to bring about positive change.
We are excited to share that we are completely rebuilding a new website, and look forward to launching it towards the end of 2026
Burnie Works is a place-based, collective impact organisation supporting the community of Burnie and surrounding areas to create positive change across education, employment, justice and community wellbeing.

Youth Council – February Meeting
A warm welcome to the Burnie City Youth Council for 2025!
As we live, work, learn, and grow in Pataway/Burnie, we acknowledge the collective wisdom of the original custodians of this place and it stories – the Palawa/Pakana people. Their connection to, and care for, Country and community is the best example of place based collective impact work we could hope for.
We commit to walking with Palawa/ Pakana people to listen and respect the deep cultural history so that together we can create a strong and vibrant future for Pataway/Burnie and its people.
We acknowledge sovereignty was never ceded, and that it always was and always will be Aboriginal land.
