@lineinthesandadoptaspot
Line in the Sand is proud to support the “Adopt-a-Spot” program facilitated by Nature Conservation Margaret River. The aim of the program is to connect young people to the coast - engaging local school communities in long term environmental restoration projects at a specific site that they “adopt” - working alongside community groups in an outdoor classroom. School students are given the opportunity to rehabilitate coastal areas through planting seedlings and cuttings, laying loads of brush and undertaking clean ups of their adopted beaches with follow up weeding.
Project ID: LITS-AaS
Adopt-a-spot Partnership
Line in the Sand has engaged Nature Conservation Margaret River Region to deliver a 5 year strategic program of coastal stewardship in the Margaret River Region. The Program commenced in 2020, and program activities, funding and deliverables will be determined and reset on a year by year basis. The areas of focus for the partnership are outlined below. LITS and Nature Conservations Margaret River are working collaboratively with local volunteer coast care groups to ensure the region’s coastal ecosystems are managed according to the best practice and are strong and resilient to face the challenges of people and climate change.
