Dolphin Sands Community Association

Thanks to Reef Murfet's phenomenal 100km run and our generous donors, we are able to offer properties impacted by the 2025 bushfire shrubs and ground covers.

​

We'll provide:

• Up to 30 low flammability seedlings per property

• Mesh guards

• Stakes

• Water crystals

 

Please get in touch by the end of April if you'd like to join in this offer. 

​

Leftover funds will be used to provide seedlings for other properties on the peninsula.​​​​

​

Sincere thanks to Brierley Industrial for offering generous discounts on fire-fighting equipment to the Dolphin Sands community.

​

To receive the discount, advise staff at any Brierley branch (Cambridge, Derwent Park, or Newnham) of the cardfile 'Dolphin Sands Community Association'. 

​​

We're pleased to announce that our Disaster Ready Fund grant application from NEMA, funded by the Commonwealth Government, was successful.

We applied for $125 000 to support Council to purchase an industrial-scale chipper/shredder. The aim is to reduce the risk of bushfire by supporting strategic green waste clearing without the need for burning. 

The DSCA Exec are currently negotiating with Council to finalise plans for mulching at Dolphin Sands.

Contact us if you'd like your mobile number added to the DSCA's emergency messaging service. 

​

We also recommend downloading the Tas Alerts app and setting your location to Dolphin Sands.​

​

Community AEDs have been installed at three locations in Dolphin Sands.

In an emergency, please call 000 for advice.
