Dunecare

Dunecare volunteers work on our beach dunes to:

• Plant suitable native shrubs and grasses to reduce erosion
• Help control weeds
• Remove rubbish
• Enhance our beaches’ natural ecosystems.

The Dunecare program supports Council’s work to manage dunes and also helps our lifeguards and surf clubs.
