Numinbah Correctional Centre

The Numinbah Correctional Centre is a low security centre located 100 kilometres south of Brisbane in the Gold Coast hinterland. The centre and surrounding property is located on over 770 hectares.

The centre encourages a self-directed rehabilitation model to prepare prisoners for release to the community or community-based supervision.

Prisoners are encouraged to work and obtain new skills, with work including landscaping, Pups in Prison program, sewing, and farm work.

Prisoners also participate in community service work which includes cleaning, mowing, gardening, painting, maintenance and animal care.

The Centre also breed cattle, with prisoners responsible for feeding and caring for the animals, and assisting with all farm work including maintenance, weed control and fence repair or reconstruction.

The centre has an on-site koala fodder plantation which has over 400 eucalyptus trees which are harvested to feed koalas in care. They also grow native plants from seed in the on-site nursery, which are available to use in conservation and rehabilitation projects across Southeast Queensland.

Attached to Numinbah Correctional Centre is the Warwick Work Camp (WWC).
