SquatSpace's Redfern - Waterloo Tour of Beauty SquatSpace began meeting with local community representatives in 2005 in an attempt to understand exactly what the newly formed Redfern Waterloo Authority's actions would mean for life in Redfern/Waterloo. The issues in the area are extremely complex, and not easy to grasp simply by reading news articles or looking at maps. The best way to "get a feel" for the area is to see it with your own eyes, and have a chance to ask questions and raise concerns. This is why SquatSpace began co-ordinating bike and bus tours in 2005. The Tour of Beauty evolves along with the issues in the area and years after the first one SquatSpace continue to run these tours. |
