First things first, we’re Tasmanians. We know first-hand there’s something special about this island state we call home, and we’re dedicated to protecting and improving upon our unique way of life. Since 2013, we’ve been focused on one thing:
Unlocking water’s full potential.
Because water is life. We all know that. But more importantly, it’s Tasmanian life. It’s where we spend the weekend and how we quench a half-time thirst. It’s what keeps our communities connected, industries running, state thriving and environment flourishing.With your help, we’re keeping the very best of Tasmania on tap.
