This is a hands-on role suited to someone who is comfortable taking initiative, coordinating people and projects, improving systems and bringing structure to a growing organisation.

While initially offered on a voluntary basis, there is potential for the position to develop into a paid role as the organisation grows and secures additional funding.

As a Community Buddy, you'll be matched with individuals who may have experienced long-term isolation, poor health, or a loss of confidence. You'll help them discover local green activities, make a plan to get involved, and, if they'd like, accompany them to their first few sessions until they feel confident attending independently.
