The NSW Young Liberals are Australia’s future leaders

For over 60 years, we’ve been the driving energy and conscience of the NSW Liberal Party — shaping policy, and driving campaigns to take the fight to Labor. And we’re only getting started.

Welcome to the NSW Young Liberals

We defend individual liberty at those red lines where your freedoms should not — and must not — be surrendered into the custody of government.

We believe in free enterprise; that markets, not the cruel ideology of socialism, are the unrivalled engine of human flourishing.

And we uphold the core institutions of Western civilisation — free speech, the common law, the family, and the non-government institutions that allow Australians to prosper.

We invest in our members, fight for solutions that matter to young Australians, and are the driving energy and conscience of the NSW Liberal Party.

Whoever you are, and wherever you come from — if you share our values, there’s a place for you in the Young Liberals.

Cooper Gannon
NSW Young Liberal President

“The values drew me in – free speech, family and the idea that government should empower, not control.

But what kept me here is the unbeatable social life.

I've made lifelong friendships in the YLs.”
