The Tasmanian Conservation Trust works to preserve Tasmania's biodiversity, natural values, built and cultural heritage. A big part of our daily work is helping every-day Tasmanian’s protect the places they love. If you have concerns about over-development, large or small don't hesitate, contact us today. We find that developers are willing to talk and make some compromises.  You may be able to work with a proponent or council to make a development acceptable, or in some cases defeat it entirely. 

We assist:

  • residents seeking advice regarding development of publicly owned land

  • concerned landowners rehabilitate their property

  •  local communities opposing the destruction of biodiversity

We can help:

  • protect significant habitat for threatened or endangered species

  • negotiate protections for your local area or amenity

  • advise on your grounds of appeal regarding a major development
