Volunteering can help people into paid employment through updating your skills, learning new skills, gaining new experiences and contacts, you may benefit from having a regular routine and having the company of other people. Volunteering will allow you to keep your CV and references up to date and employers are usually impressed to see you have volunteered to help in your community.

We have a drop in service at the Gateway in Perth where people can come to have a chat about volunteering. We have a large data base with a range of volunteer opportunities with different organisations and groups throughout P&K. If you cannot come during our drop in times (see above) then we are happy to make an appointment to meet you at a more suitable time.

For people who live outside of Perth, who wish to find out about volunteering in their own area, one of our development officers would be happy to meet with you at a place to suit you, such as a local library or café.
