19.01.2022 It’s scary how much plastic waste enters our waterways! The good news is you can do something about the evil plastic which clogs our river and endangers wildlife. Come down to Heron Park on Saturday 28 November and assist Conservation Volunteers Australia with one of their monthly events to clean the foreshore and raise awareness of the issue.
