We Need Your Help - Calling for Nominations
🌿 Join Our Landcare Committee – Skills Welcome, Curiosity Encouraged! 🌿
We’re inviting new members to join our Landcare committee—people who want to make a difference in our local environment and community. Whether you bring specific skills or simply want to learn and get involved, your contribution matters.
Skills that benefit the group and the broader community may include:
- 🌱 Environmental knowledge (planting, pest control, soil care, weeds)
- 🧠 Strategic thinking (planning, budgeting, grant writing)
- 🤝 Community engagement (event planning, outreach, media)
- 🛠️ Practical support (tool use, tech help, project coordination, hobby farming)
- 🧩 Soft skills (teamwork, mentoring, inclusivity)
No experience required—just a willingness to participate in a voluntary role and help build something meaningful. We’re a friendly, hands-on group that values learning, collaboration, and impact.
We welcome those who are interested in an office bearer role or simply would like to be a general committee member to offer a helping hand when you can. Whether you're a seasoned land steward, spreadsheet wizard or just passionate about making a difference in your local environment, we'd love to hear from you.
General committee isn't an onerous role and can include assisting with: creating the odd newsletter, writing a short report on a Landcare event for the members, web page updates, sourcing information/links on a Landcare topic to include on our web page/email, future events and input at the bi-monthly 1-hour meetings. Perhaps you have some good knowledge/skill on a topic you can share or a particular passion that may be of interest? If any of these activities appeal to you, fill in the Committee Nomination Form.
