About Banana Shire Community Directory
The Banana Community Directory supports communities throughout the Banana Shire in Central Queensland, which stretches from the Fitzroy River hinterland to mining towns around Biloela. This region’s economy is built on coal mining, electricity generation, beef production and cropping, and the directory helps residents and newcomers navigate local services. Users can search for health centres, family support programs, sporting clubs, volunteer groups and cultural organisations across towns like Biloela, Moura and Theodore, making the directory a useful hub for civic life in the shire.

Find Local & Visiting Services in Banana Shire
The directory for Banana highlights a broad range of health care, accommodation support, crisis and emergency assistance, disability services, and welfare programmes provided by local hospitals, clinics and service agencies, complemented by visiting specialists. Residents can also find listings for community clubs and interest groups, arts and creative societies, sports and recreation clubs, education and training providers, child and youth services, cultural and migrant services, environmental and conservation groups and religious or philosophical organisations. While key services like medical centres, schools and community halls are available locally, some specialised support such as legal assistance, advocacy and advanced health care is often delivered through visiting services or accessed via the nearest regional city.
Banana Region Profile
Named after a legendary bullock rather than a fruit, the Banana region sits inland from Gladstone and centres on the service town of Biloela. Coal mining, beef and broad‑acre cropping underpin the local economy, while open forests and river flats provide scenic camping and fishing. Residents have two much‑loved pastimes: casting a line from the banks of Lake Callide, where red‑claw and yellowbelly are plentiful, and dressing up for the Theodore Annual Show each May when the farming community gathers for competitions, music and a country feast.
Council has an approximate area of 29,000 km².
