The Black Cockatoo rehabilitation centre has been lucky and received a considerable amount of support from Biodiversity Protection WA,and as a result of this support from Biodiversity Protection WA and others, our needs are getting smaller but still require the following Volunteering services.

 

We are seeking volunteers who can help our cause and promote our core functions and contribute to the cause of saving our Black Cockatoos. Volunteers do not have to get their hands dirty or like touching the birds, and we are seeking passionate people who can assist in administration, book keeping, log (story) writer, people who can monitor development applications, artists, PR people and people who can write letters to support the conservation of our Black Cockatoos.

 

We sorely need Volunteers who can be ‘on call’ to collect injured birds and transport them and although we do not have the funds to pay for petrol at this stage we are working hard to obtain sponsorships and other sources of funding so we can reimburse costs in the future.

 

VOLUNTEERS: who can come with us once every 2 months into the bush to collect banksia nuts pine cones and various forms of native food for our Black Cockatoos.

 

ENGINEERING: expertise needed

 

BOTINISTS: We are desperately seeking support from botanists or groups to undertake a study on native plants as we have theories that need to be tried and documented.

 

MAPPING GROUPS: Groups who like to make maps. Maps where we collect and release black cocktoos, and who can do survey work in order to monitor developments.

 

A COMPUTER PERSON: who can set us up with easy applications to monitor these black cockatoos.

 

Please understand that there is a screening process that we do go through with our volunteer recruitment, as in the past we have had some undesirable people try and become involved with our organisation for their personal gain. The preservation of our Black Cockatoos and their environments must come first, and it is essential to the survival of all our Australian Wildlife that our volunteers have high integrity and ethics.
