Volunteering with Us

Our Centre relies on a team of dedicated friendly, engaged volunteers to support the work we do, giving up their time on a regular and committed basis. The role they play in keeping our Centre running is highly valued and appreciated.
Tasks may include - cleaning of animal enclosures, animal food preparation (as per AKAWC guidelines), setting up animal enclosures and domestic tasks such as washing and mopping floors, vacuuming and dusting, laundry, gardening and other duties as required. Some of the volunteer chores are not glamorous or exciting, but are vital to ensure the smooth running of our Centre. We need volunteers who are prepared to do all the chores willingly, and follow our procedures.
As the animals we treat are wild, the direct contact you have with them will be minimal in order to ensure they can be returned to the wild with as little human intervention as possible. This is for the safety of the animals and for you.
To find out more about volunteering with us, please send us a message (see the form below) - and we will send you an application form.
You will be expected to commit to a minimum of 1 shift per week so you are kept up to date with the Centre. We also expect a 12 month ongoing commitment to the volunteer program. If you believe you can't commit to this volunteering requirement, we kindly request you do not apply.
Please note - we cannot accept short term volunteers who may be visiting Australia due to our training requirements. We hope you understand and we appreciate your interest in our precious wildlife.
