Corporate groups can volunteer for a day to make a difference at a local animal charity by helping with gardening, groundwork, or maintenance tasks.

As a volunteer, your key responsibilities include:

  • Weeding and clearing vegetation from designated areas
  • Staining fences and animal cabins to maintain their appearance and durability
  • Pruning plants to promote healthy growth and prevent damage
  • Leaf clearing and maintaining garden pathways to ensure accessibility
  • Tidying paddocks and keeping them clean and free of debris
