February 1st 2026:
Draft FWPA STRATEGY 2026/7
Willoughby South Progress Association is one of six Progress Associations which aim to represent communities in the Willoughby Local Government Area.
Together we have formed the Willoughby Federation of Progress Associations (FWPA). Sadly, not all parts of Willoughby are represented, something the Federation would like to see changed in the future along with some other things!
Right now, the Federation is drafting its strategic plan, identifying forward directions and the projects/issues within these. These are the things which we will be advocating for over the coming year/s, mostly but not all, local Council matters. How do they measure up – for you?
Let us know wspasecretary999@gmail.com preferably before Feb 14th when the FWPA next meets.

Create a better Willoughby South
See change take place and know that you were a part of the progress.
We are the Willoughby South Progress Association (WSPA).
Most residents in Willoughby South don’t know how to raise issues relating to the local community development, council decisions, parks, and more.
We are here to lobby and represent the Willoughby South area to the council and NSW state government on local matters.
We reflect the current mood of the community, as represented by our members at general and committee meetings.
“The only way to make your voice heard is to use it.”
