• not-for-profits who use donations to pursue the organisation’s objectives and to keep the group running

Step 2.Obtain public liability insurance 

Stall holders must obtain their own Public Liability Insurance (for a minimum amount of $5 million) before booking a site.

The insurance must cover the booking use, legal liability to the public in respect of personal injury, and include City of Coffs Harbour as an interested party on the policy.

You must have a copy of the required insurance available when using the site so you can present it to any officer of City of Coffs Harbour who requests it.
