Volunteering is a great way to help look after the environment you enjoy. Learn more about your community, be active in the outdoors and meet new people. Find an event for you, your family and friends to join.
We’re following the Government’s advice and cancelling or postponing any upcoming events.
You can still get out and about and enjoy many of our parks – please practice social distancing if visiting.
Parks and cemeteries are open for pedestrian access only. Please do not use any play equipment and avoid using public toilets as these are closed.
The following are closed:
- Playgrounds.
- The Botanic Gardens.
- Carparks within parks are closed for vehicle access.
- Visitor/information centres, i.e. Bottle Lake Forest, Travis Wetland and Botanic Gardens.
- The Spencer Park Animal Area.
- Fenced Dog Parks, including Horseshoe Lake, The Groynes and Styx Mill Reserve. All other parks are available to exercise dogs in.
- Public toilets.
- All Council-owned sports facilities e.g clubrooms.
There are many events throughout the year. Activities vary, but may involve general clean ups, planting, weeding and mulching.
Please read the volunteer guidelines, then contact the listed organiser.
