Peninsula People Power starts

People Power on the Peninsula is a new group of like-minded residents who want to activate community debate on council amalgamation, green spaces, reinstating NSW government services, petrol prices and youth homelessness.

Mr Jack Lloyd from Umina has convened the group, which at the moment has 12 members.

"We are going to try and have a conversation and get some community action going around the five issues we have identified as being critical to the future of the community on the Peninsula," Mr Lloyd said.

He said he hoped other Peninsula residents concerned about the five identified issues would join the group via its Facebook page.

The group's page is "closed" so discussions are not public and new members need to ask to join.
