Welcome to Central Desert
Central Desert Native Title Services Limited (Central Desert) is a recognised native title service provider for the native title claimants and holders of the Central Desert region of Western Australia.
Our service area covers more than 830,000km2, nearly one third of Western Australia.
We work in partnership with Aboriginal People of the Central Desert as they shape a self-determined future of independence, control and connection to Country, Culture and Community.
Central Desert has established three wholly owned subsidiary companies, each having specialised teams to deliver specific outcomes, they are:
Desert Support Services Pty Ltd (DSS) focuses on land management, community projects; Rockhole Funds Management Pty Ltd (RFM) offers trustee services; Desert Accounting and Business Services Pty Ltd (DABS) covers all aspects of finance, accounting and human resources.
Together, with Central Desert Native Title Services we are known as the Central Desert Group.
Our four entities work closely but independently of each other, and in partnership with clients to build capacity and capability of Prescribed Bodies Corporate.
Central Desert Group
Central Desert acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the land we live and work on.
We recognise their continuous relationship to the lands and waters, and pay our respects to Elders past, present and emerging.
The Central Desert Group structure is crafted to support clients at any stage of their journey, through achieving native title and beyond.
The Group’s model of operations and services (as seen in our graphic “Who walks with you?”) centres on clients having control over their choices according to what they need at any time.
This informs our operational focus and Strategic Plan for the next three years.
