Join us on Friday, 26 September, from 11am to 1pm for a clean-up day in the Mangrove Forest at Powells Creek.

The event is organised by Stormwater Shepherds, an international not-for-profit dedicated to restoring the health of our waterways, and is supported by Strathfield Council and Parramatta River Catchment Group.

This event is in partnership with the Parramatta River Catchment Group's annual community event, Riverfest. To learn more about other Riverfest events that celebrate the Parramatta River and the surrounding creeks and environment, click here.

Date: Friday, 26 September 2025

Time: 11am - 1pm

Where: Powells Creek Reserve.
