In 2024 Learning the Macleay team spoke with people from across the Macleay Valley to capture the voices from community members to learn about our region’s passion, aspirations, concerns and ideas.

Over 21 days in 5 staff visited 18 locations in the Macleay Valley to capture 443 surveys with pop up information stalls. The staff yarned with community members of all ages. Further to this, for those unable to attend the stalls, they were able to do an online survey. This work allowed us to beginning shaping our conversations with Community leaders, Governments and local service providers.
