Don’t miss this special Landcare Week event – see you Friday!
After recent flooding across the region, many landholders are facing damaged or washed-out creek crossings—and the question we’re hearing most is: “Do I need a licence to repair it?”
A recent Landcare Learnings event shone a spotlight on the innovative WildSeek Koala Project, a national collaboration between Landcare Australia, WIRES, and QUT, with Tamworth Regional Landcare (TRLA) one of just five community hubs involved across the country.
Wayne & Nell Chaffey, Susan Wilson and Nicky Chirlian joined many LLS staff from across the NorthWest and New England on an excellent workshop on 28th & 29th July at the Department of Primary Industries Tamworth Agricultural Institute.
Gunnible Landcare members, working with Gunnedah SES, have been proactive in providing local residents with flood warnings.
We’re excited to share the official wrap‑up article from the BCT about the PLC Matters program and its impact on private
land conservation
across New South Wales: PLC Matters inspires private land
conservation across NSW.
Since launching in June 2023, BCT and Landcare NSW have teamed up through PLC Matters to
develop a thriving network of landholders committed to safeguarding biodiversity. By June 2025, they had delivered 143
events
across the state, engaging nearly 2,200 participants in field days, workshops, and storytelling sessions. plcm.landcarensw.net.au+5bct.nsw.gov.au+5bct.nsw.gov.au+5
The program’s impact is clear:
Our members often say that when you become part of Landcare, you’re not just joining a group, you’re becoming part of a family. The concept is so compatible with Australian culture it’s hard not to get involved! By becoming a TRLA member, you’ll be supporting our work, learning new skills, becoming part of the solution, and helping to make a difference for the future.
Did you know (TRLA) run an Annual Small Grants program for Landcare activities connected to the Tamworth region.
Volunteer Landcare and Grassroots Community groups can apply up to $2,500 for activities that meet an objective of TRLA’s strategic plan with eight successful projects being awarded funds from across the region.
