We ❤️ Our Volunteers!

Shoutout to the volunteers who help us out! ❤️ They generously assist us with a variety of tasks, and are ESSENTIAL to making sure our birds get the best care we can give them.

One of these volunteers is Katherine Harris, who works for the Australian and New Zealand College of Anaesthetists (ANCZA).
Katherine grew up around birds and has experience keeping birds on a property, as well as raising orphaned chicks and caring for sick and injured birds. Now that she lives in an apartment in town, she still gets her "country fix" by generously donating part of her Sundays to WBRT.

Her tasks range each time she comes, from cleaning pens to preparing the donated fruit and vegetables to be fed out to the birds. Katherine loves interacting with our animals, especially when a bird needs to be hand fed or receive some other sort of one-on-one attention. "Bird cuddles," she says, "always make it worthwhile getting out of bed on a cold morning."

Thank you for all you do, Katherine! You are just one of many who we appreciate so much!

If you are interested in volunteering too, then get in touch with us today!
No experience required, just a good attitude and willingness to do some dirty work!
If you are not keen to work with the birds, or just are not comfortable with
this aspect, we have a range of jobs such as shredding paper, sorting newspaper,
cleaning cages etc.
Don't be scared to offer any help at all!
Just send us a message through our "Volunteer Application."
