A sanctuary for over 100,000 migratory birds and turtles is under threat. Help make it safe again.
Ashmore Reef Marine Park is one of the 58 Australian Marine Parks. It serves as a critical nesting and stopover site in the Indian Ocean, 630 kilometres north of Broome.
It has been designated a Sanctuary Zone to minimise disturbance to the pristine environment, but invasive fire ants and weeds have made it to these three tiny islands.
We must get rid of the ants and control the weeds before irreparable damage is done. Donate now to support this important work.
The National Parks Conservation Trust acknowledges all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Traditional Custodians of Country and recognises their continuing connection
to land, sea, culture and community.
We pay our respects to Elders past and present.

To our Donors, Supporters and Partners,
After 6 years of supporting transformational projects in and around Australia’s six Commonwealth national parks, 60 marine parks and the Australian National Botanic Gardens, The National Parks Conservation Trust we will be ceasing operations on June 30, 2025.
This was not an easy decision. It comes after a thorough review of our mission, impact and sustainability in today’s philanthropic landscape. We are deeply proud of what we have achieved together.
We want to express our deepest gratitude for your donations and your thoughtful participation, which has made our work possible.
While The National Parks Conservation Trust will no longer operate as an organisation, our mission continues through the people and communities we’ve worked with across the Commonwealth national parks and marine parks.
As we wind down, we are committed to a responsible closure: we are ensuring all remaining funds and assets are distributed in line with our Deed and charitable purpose. Rest assured all current projects underway will be seen through to completion by Parks Australia. Honoring these commitments is a key priority for us during this period.
Thank you for being part of our journey. Together, we’ve made a difference to the conservation of Commonwealth national parks and marine parks.
If you have any enquiries, please contact [email protected].
With deep appreciation,
Chair, Rhondda Dickson and all the Trustees
