Welcome!

People who live, work, study and play in the Adelaide Hills give purpose to our work at Council.

Volunteering is an opportunity to partner with us so we can build connected and inclusive communities filled with resilient, active individuals across the Adelaide Hills.

Through volunteering you can make a valuable contribution to our community, share your skills or gain new ones, and get to know your community by connecting with new people.

Ways you can volunteer with Adelaide Hills Council

We are looking for volunteers of all ages, across a range of skills and different life experiences to directly contribute their time to assisting Hills communities.

Volunteer with Battunga Youth - Reclink Australia! 

Keeping Thursdays Safe, Fun & Thriving

Our Battunga Youth Group (run by Reclink Australia) is growing fast — and that’s amazing! Each Thursday night in Macclesfield, Meadows, and Echunga, we have 20+ young people coming along to connect, play, and have fun together.

To keep the program safe, supportive, and open to everyone, we need a few extra hands to join our volunteer team.

The Bracken Rd Reserve Group has been working on a piece of Roadside Reserve remnant bushland since 2017. We are a group dedicated to enhancing local biodiversity through weed management using minimal disturbance techniques. Re-vegetation using local species is being used where weed invasion has been significant.

Volunteer With Us!

We welcome all volunteers. Whatever your age, skill level, knowledge or time commitment, you can get involved. We willingly share our skills and knowledge with you. 

Contact Peter on 0412529465 or pjallen@esc.net.au to find out more about the Bracken Rd Reserve Group and volunteering with us.
