Please complete our expression of interest form outlining your skills, expertise and preferences.
We will do our best to match interests, skills and expertise with volunteer opportunities as they arise.
The selection process may involve an informal interview. You will also need to complete a police check and suitability check, which may include a working with vulnerable people registration.
