Survey: Research Opportunity for Animal Volunteers

An additional 40 participants are needed for this research. We have extended the research opportunity to 14 August 2022.

We warmly welcome you and your volunteers to join us and contribute to our research investigating the resilience, wellbeing, and mental health needs of people who volunteer with animals. We’re aware of the unique challenges and rewards faced by people who are repeatedly exposed to the difficulties and successes of caring for animals. With your participation, we are looking to:
·         Identify resilience and wellbeing factors for volunteer animal care workers
·         Identify what individual, team and organisational resources would benefit volunteers
If you are interested in participating, please share this email, the attached information, and the link to the anonymous online survey with your volunteer animal care workers and any other organisations or individuals:

The survey has been extended to 14 August 2022.

We hope to capture the experiences of volunteer animal carers across a variety of occupations and roles, including veterinary, wildlife rehabilitation and rescue, wildlife and animal parks, and research services.
