The Collective was established in 2020, members of the collective include Newtown Neighbourhood Centre, Inner West Council, Sydney Local Health District, Marrickville Legal Centre and Mission Australia all. The collective creates opportunities for community to come together, have conversations, build relationships and address issues that are important to them. Monthly BBQ’s are held on the first Tuesday of the month at Matt Hogan Reserve from 10.30am-12.30pm. There are a variety of activities available to take part in at the BBQ’s including garden games, craft, board games and robust conversations. We often have guests attend the BBQ’s to talk with community members such as Jenny Leong, Newtown’s Local member of parliament, representatives from Housing NSW and Inner West Local Area Command. |
