** NEW** Waratah Park Bush Regeneration – Sunday 16th August,2026

Respond to the needs of your local environment. Get to know your neighbours and work together to understand the complex problems that confront urban communities. The bush fire emergencies show how an external threat can be mitigated by a sense of neighbourhood, communication and co-operation. To preserve and enhance the whole of Duffys Forest, development proposals that are sympathetic to the rural ambience of the suburb and the surrounding Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park are encouraged. DFRA works closely with Northern Beaches Council to safeguard Duffys Forest for future generations..
