Our local bushcare groups

Bushcare group activities

Restoration and on-ground works is a top priority for both the Catchment Group and the Habitat Brisbane bushcare groups. As urban development continues to put increasing pressure on our environment the need to step in and reverse vegetation loss and improve the condition of existing bushland areas if more important than ever.

Catchment Group support

Our Catchment group supports the bushcare groups through a range of tasks:

  • Advocating and promoting the local bushcare groups

  • Applying for grants to expand current restoration works

  • Organising tree planting and other events open to the community and other local groups

  • Providing opportunities for local businesses to get involved through corporate volunteering or sponsoring sites.
