Better Streets Newsletter No. 21 | December 2023
Hi ,
The year is winding down, the temperature is heating up and we're all just hanging out for a break. On our journey to better streets in Australia, this year has brought some big commitments, developments and shifts, and you'll read about a few of these in this month's newsletter. Plus - details for our end-of-year party in Sydney.
Thank you for being part of this journey that we started a year ago. We're growing quickly and the ideas and people keep coming in! Let's roll into 2024 with that energy to keep making change for Better Streets for all.
