Become a Volunteer

Raise the Colours is building a network of serious, disciplined observers committed to lawful civic action, documentation, and public accountability.

This role is not for casual supporters or those looking for excitement. It is for people who understand responsibility, restraint, and the importance of evidence over noise.

Observers may be involved in:

  • documenting events and public activity,
  • gathering footage and information responsibly,
  • supporting our reporting and awareness work,
  • upholding a calm, professional standard at all times.

We do not encourage vigilante behaviour, confrontation, or unlawful activity of any kind.

Only those willing to operate within clear boundaries should apply.

Important

This is a pre-screen application. Not everyone who applies will be accepted.

If you are serious, level-headed, and prepared to be held to a standard, you may proceed.

If you are not, please do not apply.

By applying, you confirm that you understand this role is observational only and carried out within the law.
