Volunteers

Volunteers are the backbone of sustainable efforts to restore and manage our catchments. Volunteers are much more than just workers. Government will provide expertise and support, and contractors will do much of the work, however nothing will happen without the community becoming informed and involved. An informed and passionate community will in turn influence our decision makers and politicians.

We need more people getting involved so that the average person can start to understand the subtle workings of our catchments.

  • The importance of native vegetation along our waterways;
  • The detrimental effects of sediment and pollution in our waterways;
  • The negative effects of environmental weeds.

We encourage you to get involved in one of the Gold Coast’s volunteer groups and to support our Association.

To get involved simply contact info@goldcoastcatchments.org and we can add your details to this website. Your group will be allocated a separate webpage and a password to add and update your own material.

Alternatively we can help you find the closest group for you to join and become involved with.
