Our Townsville

Posted on Check Out Our Events by Luna Prince · May 27, 2025 12:39 PM · 1 reaction

Join NQCC at Our Townsville on Sunday, June 15 for a fun-filled day celebrating our beautiful natural environment!

We’ve got something for everyone – from face painting and a nature scavenger hunt for the kids, to engaging conversations about building a greener future for Townsville. Learn how you can get involved in local conservation efforts and even find out how to win an electric bike!

Feeling inspired to reconnect with nature and your community? We’d love your help on the day! Whether it's chatting with young scavenger hunters, setting up our stall, or sharing NQCC’s vision for a more sustainable North Queensland – every bit helps.

To volunteer, get in touch with our Community Campaigner, Luna.

We can’t wait to see you there!

Empowering NQ women for the Environment

In a culture where we are often focused on limitations, 'Empowering NQ women for the Environment' on Magnetic Island was an event that celebrated the incredible capacity of generations of NQ women standing up boldly for the environment.

The weekend retreat, held during Queensland Women's Week, saw women from Mackay through to Cairns come together to share stories, skills and strengthen networks. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women shared stories, through dance, about their life journeys and caring for country.
