Help Shape the Future of Wingecarribee for Young People

We recently invited young people to have a say on Council’s draft Young Wingecarribee Plan.

The aim of the Plan is to ensure our community is a supportive, engaging, and vibrant place for young people. With over 7,150 people aged 12-24 years, making up more than 13% of our population, young people are an essential part of our community’s future.

The Plan provides a framework for Council to deliver targeted programs, services and partnerships that help young people thrive.

Key Themes

The Plan identifies five strategic themes, developed in response to young people’s priorities, community input, and alignment with relevant State and Federal youth strategies:

Providing Feedback

The draft Plan was on public exhibition from Monday 26 May until Monday 23 June 2025. Associated documentation and the draft Plan may still be viewed in the Document Library on this page.

Feedback was provided during the public exhibition period through:

  1. Online Submission Form on this page
  2. Emailed to mail@wsc.nsw.gov.au
  3. Hand delivered to Council's Civic Centre at 68 Elizabeth Street, Moss Vale NSW 2577
  4. Posted to Wingecarribee Shire Council, PO Box 141, Moss Vale NSW 2577

Only written submissions were be considered and these were received by Council before Monday 23 June 2025. Please note that any submissions received may be included in the final report to Council.

Your feedback is a way for you to share your thoughts and ideas on a particular issue or project. The goal is to make sure your voice and the community’s voices are heard and considered. It helps provide valuable insights, identify potential issues and suggest improvements. This way, decisions can be more inclusive, transparent and effective, reflecting what you and the community really needs and wants.

Responses to engagement projects are compiled and considered. When projects are reported to Council to make a decision a summary of community feedback will be included. Updates on projects will be included in these pages and elsewhere on Council's website.

Sometimes it takes some months to provide feedback to the community and to make a decision as further investigation is often needed. We are listening and we do take your suggestions on board!

Next Steps

Submissions received are currently being reviewed and a final report will be developed for adoption by Council. For project updates, please follow and subscribe to this page.
