Malimup Springs Appeal

A tax-deductible appeal has been established to raise funds for the rehabilitation of Malimup Springs. If you would like to contribute to the conservation of this important heritage site, please download the donation form or contact the National Trust on (08) 9321 6088.

Malimup Springs is a 40-hectare block, located south-west of Northcliffe within the Shire of Manjimup, adjacent to the D’Entrecasteaux National Park and Southern Ocean. The property comprises vegetation varying from low coastal scrub adjacent to the Southern Ocean, to peppermint trees and scrub.

Malimup Springs was purchased through the BushBank revolving fund and on-sold to the Indigenous Land Corporation on 22 Dec 2006 for future development as a Bush University for Indigenous Culture. The purpose of the Bush University will be to teach Indigenous and non-Indigenous people the principles of Traditional Ecological and Cultural Knowledge (TECK) and become an International Centre for Best Practice in environmental education and management.

Funds raised through the appeal will go towards providing training and employment development opportunities in conservation and land management.
