Located within 15min from Brisbane’s CBD, CVA works to assist in the restoration and rehabilitation of the riparian area of the Colmslie Reserve, which is situated on the banks of the Brisbane River. The works undertaken by employees will build on works undertaken by CVA volunteers and several Bushcare groups as part of the larger Brisbane River Restoration Project. The aim of this project is to increase the areas resilience to future flood events by maintaining and improving viable floristic species, diversity and structure. Activities may include a rubbish and debris clean up, site preparation (including weed control) and re-vegetation.

What to bring:

It’s important that you bring a full water bottle with you – remember to keep drinking plenty of fluids, especially if it’s a warm day and you’re volunteering hard. A one-litre size water bottle is a good choice – just ask your Team Leader if you need to refill it during the day.

What to wear:

You’ll need a pair of sturdy shoes – CVA recommends strong work or walking boots that will protect your feet and ankles – make sure they are comfortable!

For protection from the sun and for your own safety you are required to wear long trousers, long sleeved shirts with a collar, sunglasses and a sun hat – you’ll need to have these to comply with our safety procedures.

In cooler weather, consider layering for warmth, and bring a raincoat if wet weather is likely.

We will provide:

CVA will be providing lunch on the day. Additionally, a high visibility safety vest will be provided for you to wear during the project, along with tools, first aid equipment and toilet facilities.  We can provide gloves or you can bring your own – leather ones, or ones with a leather palm are the best choices to protect your hands, especially if you’re pulling out weeds, digging, or helping build fences or walking tracks.
