Bay Burnett Conservation Council
A group of like-minded individuals and organisations dedicated
to conserving the environment of our region.
Last modified on 24 Aug 2008
Office and Environment Centre in the Neighbourhood Centre, 25 Ellena Street, Maryborough.
We strongly believe in looking after the environment that sustains us and all other living things. Our group was started in 1975 and is still going strong. We help to raise awareness and advocate conservation, however much remains to be done.
This website details the work of our group, and the environmental issues that urgently need attention. If you agree with us that conservation is the wisest use of resources, then we encourage you to get involved.
By joining our group you can become part of the movement working for a better future.
