- The Big Garden Clean up – coordinating corporate volunteers to help older and disabled residents clean up and maintain their gardens
- The Big Community Clean up – coordinating volunteers at a number of litter picking activities
You will also support with social media management, producing newsletters and e-bulletins, office administration and council meeting.
