Our Projects include:

 

Australian Wildlife Ambassadors 

​

Finding ways to support, care, educate and advocate for our wildlife and those that care for our wildlife. Brett as the founder sought out valuable insights and input from local carers, Jasmine and Leanne who are extremely active in caring for local wildlife. We thank them especially for the logo design and hope to work closely with them in the future. Please contact the Club if you would like to be involved with this significant project affecting our wildlife into the future.
