Take a look at our current projects.
The Adopt A Beach program helps schools experience, learn about and conserve our coastal and marine environments with in-class activities and excursions.
The key aim was to build connection to culture, language and country to help develop capacity and capability of the Noongar community to effectively care for the environment.
This wide-ranging project, funded by Coastwest, incorporated a number of coastal, cultural and community activities to increase engagement with coastcare projects in our region.
This Emergency Preparedness and Response Plan (ERP) considers the most likely disaster scenarios for the Swan Region, which include bushfires, severe storms, heatwaves and plant pest/disease incursion
