Manager Steve Lowe said volunteers were a “huge asset” to Whiteman Park as they helped with events including planting days, guided bush walks and school holiday programs.
“Volunteering is a great way to try new skills, meet like-minded people, and get involved in park events and projects,” he said.
“Our volunteers say they really feel a sense of accomplishment after giving back to the community and love being able to take part in new experiences and develop new skills.”
National Volunteer Week runs from May 21-27.
