The Shire oversees many areas, but the following facilities are specifically the ones that it manages:


After somewhere to swim or shoot some hoops? Look no further! The Donnybrook Recreation Centre is a hub for all things sport, swimming, and other forms of recreation. There is a 24-hour gym that you can sign up for, a function room, and regular activities that you can take part in - all in one convenient location! Learn More >>	We have some fantastic parks and ovals for your sports groups and families to play at. We are renown for the Apple Fun Park, which has been a huge project that has put Donnybrook on the map! There are spaces just like this not only in Donnybrook, but Balingup, Kirup, and Mullalyup (just to name a few)! Learn More >>

Passing through the Southwest and need somewhere to stay? Choose the Transit Parks found in the Shire! The Donnybrook Transit Park is conveniently just one street away from the main strip in Donnybrook, where you can visit all of the local businesses or grab a few groceries if need be. It's also right by the Pump Track and the Apple Fun Park, so keeping the kids entertained is not a problem! Learn More >>	There are beautiful community and town halls in the Shire catchment, which you could hire! Need a space to host an event? Maybe you have an award ceremony to organise... There are halls available for hire in the Shire of Donnybrook Balingup, with the Donnybrook Memorial Hall being one that the Shire manages and maintains directly. Learn More >>

Libraries are a hub for knowledge and the imagination. The community libraries are a brilliant space to enjoy some peaceful reading, or if you need to scan and copy any documents. The friendly staff are always ready to help, just click Learn More to see what else you can see and do at these facilities! Learn More >>	What is a standpipe? Where can I find it? In 2022, we saw the installations of the Donnybrook and Balingup Standpipes! These offer support to our Firefighters in times of need, as well as other needs and applications for heavy water streams.

	Grief is never easy. Our services for the cemetaries in the Shire catchment include burial information, cemetery records or family history searches, reservations for cemetery plots, niche wall and memorial gardens, and more. Please note that whilst we help with a lot of aspects surrounding the loss of a loved one, we do not provide funeral services. We recommend that you look at our local business directory to see who is able to help you during this time. Learn More >>
