Calling conservation volunteers
WANT TO HELP survey native frogs, kokako, kiwi and bats, or plant trees, eradicate pines or clean up an island? The Department of Conservation has a detailed programme running through to September of practical and important projects that require volunteers. The projects are graded for varying fitness levels and desired skills (such as painting, first aid, or just good eyesight and keen interest), and vary from one-day jobs to longer ongoing projects. A donation is sometimes requested to cover food costs. For details of projects in your area, contact the volunteer coordinator in the local DoC conservancy office. A list of the full national programme can be obtained from Christine Jacobson on 04-471-0726.
