The Bigambul People
Welcome to the official website of the Bigambul Traditional Owners.
This site has been created for the families of Bigambul to remain updated on the many exciting items and events that are happening for our people. It is also a great way to share the stories of our people and for others to learn about us.
We would also like to use this site to share information and promote our business to other Indigenous people & the wider community.
We are hoping this site will have something for everyone with
- Bigambul History
- Information on Indigenous Land Use Agreements
- Employment & Training opportunities
- Upcoming events in Indigenous communities
- Stories of inspirational Bigambul people from sports to musicians and most importantly, our Elders.
Here are just some of many proud Bigambul descendants:
