Become a volunteer
Volunteering is a great way to get involved in your community. You may choose to participate in areas like the arts, community services, education, emergency services, sport and recreation, health, tourism and the environment.
Volunteering is for everyone
No matter who you are, there will be a volunteering opportunity that suits you.
The benefits of getting involved in volunteering
Volunteering can be a satisfying experience by learning new skills, developing a social network or gaining work experience.
What to expect when volunteering
As a volunteer, you can expect induction, training if you need it and a safe environment to work in while meeting new people and having fun.
Things to consider before volunteering
As a starting point, contact the host organisation you plan to volunteer with to determine what roles are available and whether they will suit your interests.
Volunteer rights and protection
Various laws exist to encourage people to volunteer their time to help others by protecting them from liability claims for actions conducted in good faith.
National standards for involving volunteers in not-for-profit organisations
The National Standards ensure that the rights of volunteers is protected, their roles are explicit and they work in safe and healthy environments.
