Join the movement towards an ecologically sustainable world, driven by individual and community commitment to nurturing our natural environment on local, regional, and global scales. Your action matters – become a part of this vital change by supporting us today!

Volunteers have always been at the heart of SCEC and it cannot achieve great environmentally sustainable outcomes for the community without community participation. SCEC is looking for volunteers to take on a variety of roles within the organisation to support its focus.
