About Us

The Wyong and District Philatelic Society is a friendly and welcoming community for stamp collectors of all levels, located on the beautiful Central Coast of New South Wales. We hold two monthly meetings: an evening meeting at Gorokan on the third Wednesday of each month (7:00 pm - 9:00 pm) and a daytime meeting at Lake Haven on the first Wednesday (1:00 pm).

Our activities include buying, swapping, and selling stamps, as well as competitions, displays, lucky door prizes, and mini auctions. We also offer exchange books, guest speakers, and the loan of philatelic accessories. Each year, we present awards for the best displays, encouraging members to showcase their collections.

Whether you're a seasoned collector or just starting out, we invite you to join us and share in the enjoyment of philately.

Our Club Bulletin features a variety of articles and news updates - feel free to take a look.
