HOW TO JOIN?

Membership is open to all who share a similar vision and support the ethos of volunteer-led, community-driven natural resource management. This includes incorporated and unincorporated Landcare and community groups, individuals and associate members such as local councils and private organisations. Landcare NSW is non-partisan and once accepted as a member, all agree to be bound by the constitution and rules of the organisation.

WHAT ARE THE COSTS?

Landcare NSW membership & insurance fees are determined based on your group’s expenditure during the 12 months immediately prior to your application.

E.g., if you apply for membership in June, we will ask for your expenditure for the period May-May.

Expenditure is your Group/Entity’s expenses (what you have spent) for the immediate past 12 months at the time of applying for membership minus any monies given to another LNSW Member Group.

Examples include:

  • Program Costs: Expenses directly related to delivering your mission, such as community services, educational programs and initiatives, or environmental conservation and revegetation efforts.
  • Staff Salaries and Benefits: Wages for employees, including health benefits, superannuation, and training to ensure they can effectively support the group.
  • Administrative Costs: Office rent, utilities, insurance, legal fees, and technology expenses (software, computers, website hosting).
  • Fundraising Costs: Marketing, event planning, donor outreach, and grant writing efforts to secure funding and sustain operations.
  • Volunteer Support: Costs associated with recruiting, training, and supporting volunteers, such as background checks, uniforms, and travel reimbursements.
  • Outreach and Advocacy: Campaigns, workshops, or public awareness initiatives that align with your mission.
  • Equipment and Supplies: Any materials needed to run programs, including medical supplies, educational resources, or operational tools.
