For the outdoor types, enjoy fresh air and exercise while working alongside like-minded individuals in the park’s bushland, heathland, parkland, wetland and saltmarshes.

When you volunteer with the Wolli Creek Preservation Society, you’re provided with training, guidance, information and tools, and morning tea is always laid on. A map will be sent to you with meeting locations for weekly bushcare, and you’ll also receive regular information on upcoming events such as talks, walks and the annual dinner. There’s great public transport access to Wolli Creek Regional Park.

Saving Our Species program

Australia is home to more than 500,000 animal and plant species, many of which are found nowhere else in the world. Saving our Species is a statewide conservation program that addresses the growing number of Australian animals and Australian native plants facing extinction.
