Walk Against Warming

Take a step to tackle climate change and join the Penrith Walk Against Warming on Sunday 15 August! 

A community initiative supported by Penrith City Council, the walk gives you the opportunity to hear from renowned climate change expert Andy Best, have your say on climate change and register for free cycling classes.

Walkers will meet at 10am at Weir Reserve, Bruce Neil Drive, Penrith on Sunday 15 August.

Highlights of the day include:
  • A talk from renowned climate change speaker Andy Best, who is a past recipient of the Churchill Fellowship for his work in sustainability education.
  • The opportunity to participate in filmed interviews so we can capture your voice on climate change.
  • Native plant give away.
  • The opportunity to register for free cycling classes to help you increase your confidence on your bike.
  • Kids can also get a free temporary tattoo from our friendly sustainability mascot, Echo the Eastern Water Dragon.
Residents are encouraged to bring their own water on the day, and fresh fruit will be supplied. Why not bring a picnic lunch to enjoy with the family after the walk?
