At The Galway Hooker, we believe in promoting inclusivity and respect for all. In the spirit of reconciliation, we acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia and their deep connections to land, sea, and community. We pay our utmost respect to their Elders, both past and present, and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today.

We are proud to be a place free from discrimination, where everyone belongs. We celebrate the diversity of our communities, embracing people of all cultural and faith backgrounds, classes, gender or sexual identities, ages, and abilities.
