Celebrate Sustainable Neighbourhoods 2019

We had a lovely afternoon catching up with Sustainable Neighbourhood volunteers from around Lake Macquarie for an end of year celebration.

We welcomed Graham Prichard from Council, who told us about Council's Tree Replacement Program and future plans for an Urban Forest Strategy. We'll send out a summary of Graham's presentation soon.
We also enjoyed hearing 5 minute report backs from each of the local Sustainable Neighbourhood groups, sharing the year’s highlights and challenges.

Find out about other upcoming Sustainable Neighbourhood events and activities.
