Join our 200+ team of volunteers

Our family of volunteers are the lifeblood of our hospital, supporting animal care, food preparation, nursery work, cleaning, maintenance, visitor engagement and administration. Whether you can give a few hours a week or more regular time, there are flexible roles to suit different skills and availability. Every volunteer helps us care for koalas and other native wildlife on their journey back to the bush.
