The Lowlands Coastcare Group is a sub-committee of the Youngs Siding Progress Association and comprises local volunteers committed to caring for and promoting the sustainable use of the Lowlands Coastal Reserve including the popular Lowlands Beach.

Lowlands is a crucial link in the south coast's regional reserve system which protects and maintains the environmental values of our coastline.

The LCG has been involved over a number of years with revegetating damaged and eroded areas, improving access on existing tracks by grading and belting and providing facilities at the beaches such as steps, lookouts, carparks, shelters and a toilet.

New members are always welcome and appreciated. Contact us through the website or phone Brad Kneebone on 9845 2233.
