Who or what is CWEC?

Central West Environment Council (CWEC) is an umbrella organization representing conservation groups and individuals in central west NSW working to protect the local environment for future generations.

 

Groups from Bathurst, Orange, Blayney, Lithgow, Rylstone, Mudgee and Dubbo are represented and we have some individual members from areas with no environmental groups.CWEC provides group members with the opportunity to meet, socialise, exchange ideas, get training and advice as well as help with submissions and advocacy.

 

We meet quarterly by zoom and with one or two face to face meetings each year.

Next meeting:  
Sunday 2nd February - AGM - (by zoom)
