Since 2001 our club has been assisting the Department of Environment and Conservation (D.E.C.) in looking after the Leschenault Peninsular just North of Bunbury in Western Australia. Our regular visits ensure the area will survive against, erosion, weeds and pests.

In 2007 we were approached by Tony Eddleston from D.E.C. and asked if the club would be able to assist in cleaning up the Darling Range Regional Park. The area was previously privately owned and needed to be returned to its natural state. After some of our committee member met with Tony early in 2007 it became evident that the area had been invaded by people more interested in dumping rubbish than seeing the area restore to it natural beauty. An action plan was put into place and our first clean up was held on Saturday 22nd of July 2007, we managed to remove 12 tonnes of rubbish that day with a promise to return for more on a regular basis.

There are further plans to do more rubbish removal, fence removal and general clearing up of objects foreign to the natural landscape. Securing the area to keep unauthorised vehicles out is also a high priority.
