Sydney Harbour Federation Trust

Volunteer at Cockatoo IslandIn 2001 the Australian Government returned former Defence and special Commonwealth lands around Sydney Harbour to the people of Australia. The Sydney Harbour Federation Trust was created and funded for a limited period to prepare these eight special lands for their new life as public spaces. We have cleaned contaminated areas, rehabilitated bushland, preserved heritage buildings and opened up sites for everyone to enjoy. Now the Trust is self-financing. As a not-for-profit operation we rely on income generated from the sites and community support to cover the cost of future works and public programs.
