The Sydney Alliance brings together diverse community organisations, unions, religious organisations and schools to advance the common good and achieve a fair, just and sustainable city. It is a non-party political organisation.
Alongside the Uniting Church in NSW, our congregation partners with Sydney Alliance for events in the Sutherland Shire, and in doing so we work with other local groups such as Vinnies Sutherland and the Sutherland Environment Centre.
