Contact Council and Government Decision-Makers
It's important decision-makers know our community is aware of the lack of transparency and consultation on this massive project. Find contacts and key messages to assist with drafting emails or making calls.
Showing you understand your right to use Moreland's green recreation spaces (regardless of your fitness or interests) will make a difference in the fight to keep them accessible for everyone.

Spread the Word
Many of the local community don't know the Hosken synthetic pitch installation is scheduled to happen in Jan 2021. To save the grass oval and shared space we need to make sure everyone knows about it. Here is how you can spread the word:

Make a sign to let people know what is going on. Make sure you add this savehoskenreserve.com and the Facebook group 'Keep Hosken Reserve Accessible for all'
Put up Green Ribbons

Sign the Petition
Let City of Moreland know you have concerns about all of its grass sports fields. We're now campaigning for Moreland to investigate alternatives to synthetic to accommodate sport and community demand, such as best practice sports turf. We hope to present this petition in September 2021. For more information about best practice natural turf, here is a webinar.
Vote to Save Hosken
The following candidates have pledged to stop the tender process if elected, until residents are also consulted and their needs factored into Hosken's future.
