Black Cockatoo Crisis is a visually stunning movie by Jane Hammond that highlights the plight of black cockatoos in Western Australia but ends with a message of hope and a call to action. Bring your friends and family to this community event and learn more about the devastating impact of land clearance and logging on the Black Cockatoos in Western Australia.
The habitat of the Glossy Black Cockatoos and Yellow Tailed Black Cockatoos on the Northern Beaches will suffer a similar fate of fragmentation and destruction if the development of bushland areas such as the Patyegarang planning proposal at Belrose is approved (previously known as Lizard Rock). Learn also about the bigger picture across NSW in relation to preventing logging of native forests and protection of native wildlife.
Come along and meet like-minded people in your community, share a drink, make new friends and find out how you can help. Take advantage of this rare opportunity to see Black Cockatoos Crisis, only screened a few times in Sydney and not available online.
Tickets are free to make the event accessible to all however donations towards the cost of the privately funded venue and film license fees are appreciated.
Any additional funds raised will be split equally between the Black Cockatoos Crisis Project and the Northern Beaches Bushland Guardians. Thank you to Dee Why RSL for a generous discount on the cost of the venue.

New tooling for the hull sees an increase in hull strength while retaining the same shape and weight. Key rig fittings, the Gooseneck, Compression Strut, Masthead Fitting and Jib Boom front end fittings have been redesigned for maximum efficiency and easier assembly.
