Corporate Partnerships FY24 Wrap Up

Blue Carbon Lab

Beach has partnered with Deakin University’s Blue Carbon Lab to help restore some of Australia’s critical coastal wetlands.

The ‘Regenerating Our Coasts’ project uses a new approach to wetland restoration by deploying biodegradable structures that help new wetlands to establish and thrive.

Beach recognises the importance of wetlands and the ecological role they play in combating climate change and is committed to supporting community projects that support the environment.

Royal Flying Doctor Service

Beach is a long-standing, major supporter of the Royal Flying Doctor Service (RFDS), which provides a critical emergency health response service to thousands of Australians each year, including the remote Cooper Basin area where Beach operates.

The RFDS is one of the largest and most comprehensive aeromedical organisations in the world, providing extensive primary health care and 24-hour emergency services to people in regional and remote communities over an area of 7.69 million square kilometres.

South Australian Museum

For many years, Beach Energy has been an important partner in the delivery of the Museum’s educational initiatives and played a vital role in encouraging young people to develop an interest in STEM.

The current partnership with SA Museum helps fund the Sprigg Salon series (named in honour of Dr Reg Sprigg AO and Beach’s founder). This is a series of public events and/or online content that brings together leading scientists, researchers and thought leaders to discuss, debate and dissect the issues that influence the future of STEM.

The partnership also supports the Aboriginal Living Languages Project with the focus on revival and maintenance of all 46 Aboriginal languages in South Australia, to be recovered, revitalised and shared.
