Driven by surfers, families, ocean lovers, and environmental advocates, Surfrider Foundation leads grassroots action and community engagement to address the challenges facing our coast. We are currently working to stop plastic pollution at the source and address poor water quality along the east coast.
Surfrider Foundation Newcastle helped lead the successful STOP PEP11 movement that protected the local coastline from the threat of offshore fossil fuel exploration and the danger of a major oil spill.
We work with local communities, businesses, creatives, and partner organisations. We’re always looking for new ways to collaborate, so if you’d like to get involved please reach out.
Learn more about our local events and how you can get involved by contacting the email below. We’re currently looking for new members to join the team, so now is the perfect time to say hello!
