The Wellsford Forest Conservation Alliance is campaigning to upgrade the Wellsford Forest to national park status. The group is concerned that at present the forest, with nine 500-year-old ironbark trees, is vulnerable to logging and firewood collection. See FOBIF site for map of Wellsford forest and more information on the campaign.

Interested people may like to sign a petition, Protect the Wellsford Forest. The Alliance aims to present the petition to parliament in September 2014.
