National Volunteer Week (20th – 26th May) is Australia’s largest annual celebration of volunteering. This special event is an opportunity to highlight the important role of volunteers in our community and invites people not currently volunteering to give it a go. National Volunteer Week 2024 is a celebration of the diverse passions and talents everyone brings to volunteering. This year’s National Volunteer Week theme is ‘Something for Everyone’ highlighting that there’s a place for everyone in the world of volunteering.
The Town would like to acknowledge and thank our Amazing Volunteers that work to enhance and improve our community.
