I Support the Open Letter to End Greyhound Racing at Wentworth Park

Wentworth Park is Crown land that should serve the community, yet it continues to be used for greyhound racing, an industry linked to ongoing injuries, deaths and gambling harm.

In 2024 alone, five greyhounds died on track at Wentworth Park and more than 390 were injured.

So far in 2025, 13 dogs have died on NSW tracks, with more than two dozen additional deaths after severe racing injuries. Over 3,400 injuries have already been recorded, by far the highest total in Australia.

Wentworth Park is Crown land that should serve the community, yet it continues to be used for greyhound racing, an industry linked to ongoing injuries, deaths and gambling harm.

So far in 2025, 13 dogs have died on NSW tracks, with more than two dozen additional deaths after severe racing injuries. Over 3,400 injuries have already been recorded, by far the highest total in Australia.

A wide range of organisations, leaders, MPs and community groups have signed an Open Letter calling for an end to greyhound racing at Wentworth Park when the lease expires in 2027. The letter urges the NSW Government to return this Crown land to the community and implement the community-led vision for a safer, greener and more accessible public space.

By sending a message to your local MP, you can show that you personally support the Open Letter and want Wentworth Park reclaimed for genuine community benefit.

I am writing to let you know that I support the Open Letter calling for an end to greyhound racing at Wentworth Park. I am adding my voice to the many animal welfare organisations, greyhound advocates, rescues, elected representatives and community groups who have already signed this important call.

Wentworth Park is Crown land meant for public benefit, yet it continues to be dominated by greyhound racing and gambling despite the ongoing injuries and deaths. In 2024 alone, five greyhounds died on track at Wentworth Park and more than 390 were injured. So far in 2025, 13 dogs have died on NSW tracks, with more than two dozen additional deaths after severe racing injuries. Over 3,400 injuries have already been recorded, by far the highest total in Australia.

The Open Letter urges the NSW Government to:
 • End greyhound racing at Wentworth Park, and
 • Restore this land to community use through the community-led vision for the park.

I support this call because I believe Wentworth Park should serve the community, not an industry associated with animal suffering and gambling harm. This is a rare opportunity to return this Crown land to public use for recreation, green space and community activity.

I want you to know that I support this call and want Wentworth Park returned to the community when the current lease expires.
