🚨 Funding Cut to Wagga Women's Health Centre Inc.
I’m deeply concerned that Wagga Women’s Health Centre has been denied vital government funding. As a result, all primary prevention programs will end by 31 August.
This centre has been a lifeline for countless individuals—providing culturally safe, trauma-informed support in a community where domestic violence rates remain high.
✍️ Let’s stand together to protect frontline services in Wagga. Please support WWHC by signing the petition:

Fund Wagga Women’s Health Centre: Domestic Violence is Preventable

Last month included a visit to one of Wagga's Sewage Treatment Plants in Kooringal. The process starts with screening and grit removal before splitting into two streams. A portion undergoes primary sedimentation, trickling filtration, and secondary filtration, while most waste water follows a newer process that includes aeration—where air is added to support microorganisms in breaking down wastes. The final treated water is directed towards reuse projects such as irrigation and the rest goes back to nature, ensuring a clean, sustainable environmental management.

During the council facility tour, we also visited The Glenfield Road Animal Shelter. The Glenfield Road Animal Shelter is dedicated to reuniting lost pets with their owners and providing a second chance for those left behind or abandoned. If you're interested in adopting a pet and giving them a loving home, visit the centre to learn more. More information can be found here https://wagga.nsw.gov.au/services/pets-and-animals/gras

Last Monday, Councillors had an insightful visit to the Wagga Wagga Livestock Marketing Centre, witnessing firsthand the sale of cattle. On that day, approximately 8,000 cattle were sold—a significant number! While there are many factors, one is influenced by the ongoing dry weather conditions.

It was fascinating to learn about the entire process, from receiving the cattle to their sale and final transport. A key focus of discussions during the visit was animal welfare and sanitation, both essential aspects of responsible livestock management.

As the largest livestock market in the Southern Hemisphere, the Wagga Wagga Livestock Marketing Centre is truly an asset to the Wagga City Council—something to be proud of!
