Bush Restoration Volunteer
About this opportunity
SERAG encourages new volunteers to attend a few times at least to gain an appreciation of bush restoration methods of weeding and planting, and of the foreshore ecosystem. Weekend and weekday volunteering sessions are available all year round.
SERAG offers regular opportunities to which people are welcome to come along and volunteer their time and energy. The activities of ‘Treemendous Tuesdays’, TT, involve volunteers for two hours early morning in weeding /planting / collecting rubbish, followed by a friendly morning tea/coffee (provided) on this beautiful shoreline. Worthwhile investment of time, in company of friendly folk caring for country. No better place for that morning coffee!!
Another opportunity is available volunteering alongside Curtin University students on twelve Thursday mornings from 9am to 12noon, during University semester. Enjoy working and sharing a well-earned coffee and cake in good company with great views of the river. And we can attest the benefits as the river becomes healthier and the community enjoys the revitalized riverside. People are welcome to come and try it out for a few times.
