Community / Schools Projects:

- Volunteer events – twice weekly volunteer mornings at the Community Nursery & contribute to the implementation & maintenance of grant funded projects.
- WCL is a Centrelink registered JobSeeker Host.
- Works with other community groups such as Fauna Rescue where possible to enhance the outcomes of independently received grants.
Community Revegetation Projects:
- WCL has completed many highly successful revegetation projects around the region
- At Galbraith Park in Cannonvale, we have carried out revegetation over a 20 year period, much of which has now matured and provides environmental benefits as well as public amenity.
- A visit is highly recommended for anyone undertaking their own reveg projects – all plants started as seeds collected and propagated locally by WCL volunteers and were planted as standard 50mm tubestock.
