Joining C4 puts you in touch with a community which has, since 1990, played a valuable role in fostering conservation in the Cassowary coast region.
Protection and appreciation of our natural heritage through understanding and sharing is a driving force of C4.
Based at Mission Beach, where the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park joins the Wet Tropics Management Area, C4 provides a forum for a diverse range of people to make a contribution to the conservation of our wonderful and unique environment. At the same time, members gain information and inspiration from others including scientists, visitors with particular interests or expertise and locals who are happy to share their knowledge and experiences in the natural world surrounding us.
C4 is entirely voluntary and run by a management committee with general meetings held every two months. The general meetings are followed by a shared dinner and/or barbecue. BYO drinks.
Volunteering...members chose their level and type of involvement ranging from working in the nursery growing new tropical rainforest plants for revegetation projects to manning the environment centre and display area, administration of the office or hosting groups of visitors such as university field tours.
C4 is represented in many interactions with community groups (tourism, service clubs, schools), environmental organisations (CSIRO, Wet Tropics Management Authority, Terrain Natural Resource Management, Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority) and government (state, federal and local).
If you want to add your voice, help develop ideas for safeguarding and enhancing our natural environment or learn more about this wonderful part of the world, there are lots of opportunities.
To join up, download and complete the membership form from the Memberships page (above this one in the "Get Involved" menu), and do a direct transfer of funds into our account.
(If you do direct transfer please email us at c4Mission@gmail.com to confirm so we can update our records.)
Otherwise, you can join in person at the C4 Display Centre.
