Glenelg Hopkins CMA Landcare Leaders Series

Nelson Coastcare Inc - Mary Styles

In this episode, we meet Mary Styles from the Nelson Coastcare Inc group from the far south-west corner of Victoria west of Portland.

Mary and her merry band of over 40 volunteers are the guardians of the Ramsar-listed wetland area of Long Swamp and the Glenelg Estuary. She declares it the last wilderness frontier in Victoria and the crew from Nelson Coastcare take their responsibility for caring for, understanding, monitoring and mapping of the area in a variety of ways but with the common goal of protecting it for future generations and for the benefit of the environment and tourism in the local area.
