Volunteers will assist in the sorting and recording of all debris collected.

No prior experience is necessary, our friendly team leaders will teach you everything that you need to know on the day.
We have over 100 bags from our recent Island Hop trip to Low Wooded Island and Three Islands National Park to sort and enter into the Australian Marine Debris Database, so if you’re based around Cairns and you’re keen to lend us a hand then please email your interest tohannah@tangaroablue.org.
