Volunteers we believe that we should offer everyone an opportunity to
be involved in managing and protecting a healthy and sustainable
environment. If you
share that vision and would like to make a critical contribution to
seeing it achieved, then consider joining our team of passionate and
enthusiatic staff.
As a
team, we make it possible for thousands of volunteers, both local and
international, to join us every year to help plant thousands of trees,
clear hectares of weeds, improve river health, save endangered species
and protect our cultural heritage.
As a not-for-profit organisation we
make use of various options to make our package as attractive as
possible, but we also acknowledge that the people who join us do it for
more than the money - it is about using your particular qualifications
and skills to make a real difference.
