Campaign information prepared 12 November 2026. The fundraising arrangements described here are being prepared; this article does not open a donation facility.
Community support can help meet the cost of professional work, bring local perspectives into the public discussion and make reliable information easier to find.
The professional work
The proposed initial fundraising priority is independent town planning assessment and expert evidence for the appeal. Before donations open, the campaign will identify the organiser, recipient, agreed budget, permitted expenses and fund terms. Experts reach their own opinions; the Court decides the appeal.
Other ways to help
- Share the campaign explainer and its source documents.
- Register interest in campaign updates.
- Offer a useful volunteer skill or help your community group understand the issues.
- Tell us why your local centre matters, using photographs you have permission to share.
A clear division of roles
Save Our Shops Gold Coast is the community group behind the public campaign. The appellants remain responsible for their court proceeding and decisions about it.
Questions about the public campaign can be sent through the campaign contact form. Confidential legal advice and urgent court matters should not be submitted through a general public-enquiry form.
