Pat Harbison OAM
It is with great sadness that we farewell our founding member and life member Pat Harbison OAM, who died on the 9 November 2021, age 92.
The Friends of Gulf St Vincent Inc. (FoGSV) is a community group that is concerned with the protection and conservation of this wonderful, unique body of water and its biodiversity. We organise events around issues related to clean beaches, clean water, and healthy ecosystems, such as seagrass meadows, mangrove forests, benthic and pelagic communities, and beach systems, which are critical for our enjoyment and appreciation of the gulf and its environs.
