Connecting people and community

This winter our wonderful Cockburn community and school groups were out and about rain, hail or shine!  They were volunteering their services to revegetate our conservation reserves, to help increase the biodiversity and habitat value. More than 600 local residents and school children planted over 20,000 native seedlings within Bibra Lake, Manning Park, Impson Park and CY O’Connor Beach.

Not only will our natural environment benefit from these efforts, now and into the future, but our volunteers have made lifelong connections and friendships too!
