Staff here are very passionate and knowledgeable about the work they do. The community is very lucky to have such amazing people taking care of our Koala’s and releasing them back home. It would have been difficult and heartbreaking to navigate through the fires & the floods. Thank you for all the work you do!
And for visitors - don’t forget to donate! They accept card

The care and support I was given over bringing in a (first time mother and her pinky Joey from a deliberate hit and run in front of me,) was overwhelming. The lady even reparked my suv for me I was deeply grateful for their time and support. And to meet the permanent resident koalas was comforting. Please support this charity and slow down in koala zones. Because this tragic event will never leave me.

This was the highlight of my Lismore trip. I learned a lot about Koalas. The staff is friendly and dedicated to saving Koala. I would highly recommend the daily session at 2pm.

I love being able to improve the environment by planting natives and koala food trees whilst also knowing that my purchase of plants fund the ongoing rescue, support and rehabilitation of koalas. Win, win.

A very caring atmosphere for both volunteers who work as carers, leaf collection, maintaining the centre and clinic. Everyone pitches in to do the best of their ability. It can be challenging learning curve for us as volunteers. However it's well worth the experience.
Everyone from administration, the committee head and such. Appreciates what care we all offer to the local koalas in care.

Rescue group doing amazing work. Don't expect to come here and cuddle the koalas. They care for sick or injured koalas. Not a zoo!

I really appreciate their work but I think while lots of internationals are in the Uni, they can have more program and get more funds as a charity.
