How To Help
Become A Rescuer or Transporter
- Wildlife rescue involves 'catching' wildlife and delivering it to a vet or carer.
- Transporters just deliver the animals without having to handle them.
These roles each give you the opportunity to come into close contact with our wildlife and make an impact not only on their individual lives but also that of their species.
Anyone can become a rescuer if:
- You are over 18 years of age (for insurance reasons)
- Hold a current drivers' license
- Can nominate a time each week or each month to be available for the rescue roster.
- You become a member of AWARE
- You complete AWARE rescuer training.
