Thanks to volunteers just like you, we are closer to achieving our vision of Tasmania becoming a global leader in nature conservation and sustainability.
Our community of committed volunteers are vital to the success of our conservation work. Our volunteers contribute valuable effort, skills and expertise across all areas of the organisation including science projects, ecological monitoring, reserve management activities, governance, event support, mail outs, photography and much more.
Involving volunteers in our conservation work also greatly reduces our costs. For example, during 2017-2018, 190 individual volunteers contributed 935.47 days of work which is equivalent to $263,503.11 worth of paid work. We are enormously grateful for this contribution.
Volunteering with us is a great way to:
- participate in achieving the TLC’s nature conservation goals
- experience the TLC’s magnificent reserves up close
- be active and increase your well-being
- meet like-minded people and make new friends
- develop and enhance valuable skills
- become a citizen scientist
- support the TLC in kind
