Yirranma Place acknowledges that we work, live and play on the stolen land of the Gadigal People of the Eora Nation, who are the traditional custodians of Darlinghurst. Yirranma pays respect to the elders past, present and future of the Eora Nation and extends that respect to other Aboriginal and Torres Strait people.

Always was, always will be Aboriginal land.

Yirranma Place stands on Gadigal Land. We acknowledge the Traditional Owners of this land, the Gadigal people and recognise their continuing connection to land, waters and culture. We pay our respects to their Elders, past and present. We value their Country and respect them as the First Peoples of this Country. We commit Yirranma Place and the work within it to play a role in addressing the injustices towards Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People.
