"What an amazing event in Narooma! 80 people from all walks of life on the south coast came together to learn about and discuss the importance of marine sanctuaries in our region. In 2019 Andrew Constance MP and Adam Marshall MP began rolling back marine sanctuaries on the South Coast - and publicly stated they're looking to do the same across NSW marine parks. The whole NSW marine estate is now under review, and its the time for communities to get active and tell these MP's to leave marine sanctuaries in place - and to give our six Batemans sanctuaries back! If you haven't already - head to our website, fill in the form and make your voice heard. Thanks so much to everyone who helped with and supported last night's event!"

The event at Bend & Sip in Narooma follows on from the Narooma Bar beach paddle out which had 300-400 people attend for a peaceful protest against the sanctuary zones being removed without public consultation.
