Read more about Threatened species volunteer program

Help us with our commitment to zero extinctions of threatened species in NSW national parks.

We offer diverse volunteer opportunities to monitor and restore vital habitats within our national parks and reserves. You'll contribute to the protection of iconic species including koalas, shorebirds, long-nosed bandicoots, glossy black cockatoos, penguins, brush-tailed rock-wallabies and more. And you'll be working alongside other passionate volunteers and dedicated rangers.

Volunteer opportunities change throughout the year and can include:

  • Surveying and monitoring wildlife populations
  • Bush regeneration and restoring crucial habitats
  • Collecting data to inform conservation efforts
  • Hands-on activities like weeding, erosion control and planting.

Volunteer programs such as Saving our Species and Citizen Science initiatives often involve a collaboration between NSW National Parks and other organisations like Conservation Volunteers Australia, Greening Australia and Landcare.
