Volunteer

Whether you are a primary producer or not, volunteers play an important role in helping in the aftermath of bushfires, floods, storms and other emergencies.

It is vital that all volunteers assist as a part of a recognised organisation and are trained appropriately before assisting in any emergency situation.

Do not place yourself or others are risk in an effort to help, especially in regards to native and non-native animal safety, through unintentionally act illegally by handling injured or deceased animals without the appropriate authorisation or training.

If you are trained for emergencies or a member of an official response organisation, such as SA Veterinary Emergency Management (SAVEM), you can volunteer to help stressed and injured animals in the aftermath of emergency events.

Contact SAVEM to see how you can help.

You can also register with Volunteering SA and NT, a recognised organisation that also helps with any recovery effort.
