More than 300 people have marched in solidarity with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander reconciliation as part of this year's Reconciliation Week.
Wednesday's Stride for Reconciliation at Warners Bay, organised by Lake Macquarie City Council, included students from more than 10 local schools, as well as community groups, NSW Police and support services.
Council's Manager Community Partnerships Matt Holloway said this year's theme of 'All In' was a powerful call for all Australians to commit to reconciliation every single day.
"It reminds us that reconciliation is not a spectator sport," he said.
"We must all step forward, take action and be part of meaningful change."
More than 11,700 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people call Lake Macquarie home, comprising 5.5 per cent of the city's population.
Council released last year its Aboriginal Community Plan, Bayikulinan, which aims to improve the overall health and wellbeing of Aboriginal people living and working in Lake Macquarie.
