The Friends of Brixton Street Wetlands was formed in 1993 to bring together members of the Waterbird Conservation Group, the Wildflower Society and concerned members of the community. The groups have been active in the Wetlands since 1989, lobbying the Environmental Protection Authority for assessment and recognition of the wetlands.

With recognition by government of the Wetlands as a conservation area, a management committee with representation from the Friends, Wildflower Society, CALM and the City of Gosnells has been responsible for management of the Wetlands. Management activities have involved the erection and upgrading of a fence, erection of signs, rubbish removal, and weed control.

The Friends coordinate regular guided walks and working bees in the Wetlands. Displays on the Wetlands are regularly conducted in shopping centres, schools, libraries etc.

The Friends meet regularly to work in the Wetlands. If you would like to join the Friends call 9459 2964.
