SOS Liverpool Plains raises awareness of the real effects of coal and coal seam gas mining. We represent country and city women from all walks of life. SOS Liverpool Plains is a group that represents country and city women from all walks of life – business women, wives, mothers, teachers, medics, scientists, accountants, IT professionals and grandmothers.
Our mission is to raise awareness of the real effects of coal and coal seam gas mining on the people, the communities, the land, the air, the workers and surrounding developments and most importantly OUR WATER – both riverine and underground. We raise to light the facts and let the people decide. We aim to reinvigorate democracy and keep Governments accountable.
The group began from humble beginnings in 2007, initially raising funds through cake stalls and has built into a group that has hosted many successful community information events. We lobby politicians, support the Caroona Coal Action Group (CCAG), and link in with the Northwest Alliance against Coal and Coal Seam Gas.
