If you’re looking for that extra motivational oomph or looking to dig deeper into your niche sustainability interest, it’s time to share it with others.

We’re combining your love for sustainability with a FREE casual "walk and talk" along the lakeside paths of Lake Macquarie. We can only do so much by ourselves, but everything gets better, stronger, and more joyful when you’ve got a community to support you. Whether you're a composting pro or just starting to reduce your plastic, this is a space to connect with like-minded locals and solve challenges together.

What to Expect

We’ll start with a quick intro where you can share a specific challenge or "snag" you're facing with the group.

As we walk, we talk. We'll use the collective brainpower of the group to find solutions, share tips, and spark new ideas.

But that's not all. We're in this together. Each month, we’ll start by reflecting on the collective wins (and wobbles) from the previous month's attendee-led challenges.

The Details

There’s plenty of room to spread out and chat - we’re here for the conversation and connection.

Food & Drink: We won't be stopping to purchase food or drink during the walk, but there is a coffee van near the start/end point (in front of The Esplanade Hotel, Warners Bay). Feel free to grab a brew there before we start or BYO thermos and reusable cup to sip as we go.

Why Join?

Because your "small" idea might be exactly what someone else needs to hear, and their solution might be exactly what you’ve been looking for.

Who's it for?

This "walk and talk" is for general community members from the Lake Mac, Newcastle and surrounding areas, including young kids in prams or on bikes to keep up with the pace. If you're part of a business and is interested in sustainability, you're also welcome to come and learn from each other.
