Clean Up Australia Day 2022
The Redhead community regularly participates in Clean Up Australia Day, which, in 2022, was on Sunday 6th March. Its "hub" was, as usual, in Webb Park. Clean Up Australia Day began in 1989 with over 40,000 people responding to the challenge to clean up Sydney Harbour put out by the late, renowned yachtsman, Ian Kiernan. That day began a change not only for Sydney but for so many of us.
Clean Up Australia has now evolved into a national event with global impact. Our thanks to those who participated in 2023. For more information, go to: https://www.cleanup.org.au

Keeping Redhead's Community Safe
Although Redhead is generally a low crime area, in 2022 Police were observed an increase in reports of unregistered trail bikes in the area. They have urged community members to report any unregistered motorbikes to police as they're monitoring reports and frequency in the area, and can use such information for planned operations.
Those who know where these bikes are coming and going from, are encouraged to contact crimestoppers: 1800 333 000.

Protecting Redhead's Flora and Fauna

The Council's bush reserves are part of the unique habitat that makes Redhead such a wonderful place to live, and any destruction of the bushland is a degradation of the beautiful village that we're seeking to preserve.
In early 2022, and in an act of wanton destruction, chainsaws were used to illegally clear a wide track of land in the Council's reserved native bushland off Steel Street, creating a wide track of cleared land. Obviously, bushland reserves are public land and should be treated with respect. Any destruction of Council bushland is illegal |
