Alex Foreshore Bushcare Group

A sub-committee of the Association, this group seeks to identify issues, advocates for local interests, and assists wherever possible to maintain and protect the habitat. We also have monthly working bees on the foreshore, working in partnership with the Community nature Conservation Program. Volunteers are most welcome.

People are passionate about protecting our precious beachside environment, along with the small areas of open space in our 300 hectare suburb. Protection of the remaining coastal vegetation and our 1.8 km of marine coastline is critical, and many organisations are involved.

See this page for information on all environment and conservation groups who work in Alex.
