WILDLIFE PRESERVATION CLARENCE VALLEY
PRESERVING LAND FOR LIFE

Wildlife Preservation Clarence Valley (WPCV) acts on a local scale to protect and return ecosystems to the commons, ensuring they are preserved and managed for their natural values in perpetuity. By bringing community, science and culture together to manage our environment, we aim to ensure a resilient and diverse future for our communities and future generations. Ecosystem health depends on biodiversity, as do environmental processes like pollination, water filtration and the nutrient cycles. From our agriculture, fishing and tourism industries, to the cultural, educational, health and recreational values, we all benefit from healthy and prospering ecosystems. WPCV is here to reinforce current conservation efforts by providing an alternate land-ownership structure.

By investing in WPCV, you're contributing to the strategic acquisition and management of important ecosystems within the Clarence Valley.

The Clarence valley is a biodiversity hotspot of global significance situated in the Northern Rivers of NSW. It is part of the Macleay-McPherson overlap where tropical and temperate species meet, home to over 173 threatened species of fauna, 170 species of flora and 18 endangered ecological communities.

This valley has so much extraordinary natural richness to enjoy & protect.
