AIM Building
Opened in 1928 by the Australian Inland Mission, the Elizabeth Symon Nursing Home provided a much needed medical service for the Cooper region. The home was named after the wife of Sir Josiah Symon who donated 1500 pounds towards the project. The Home closed in 1951 due to advances in air cover provided by the RFDS and the building fell into disrepair until the Australia Geographic raised $120,000 for restoration. The building reopened in July 1994, as the headquarters for the National Parks and Wildlife Service and now houses a range of information panels. Opening hours 8.30 – 11.30am and 2.30 – 5.00pm.
