Get involved - volunteering
Our volunteering program benefits COTA Victoria, our volunteers and the health and well-being of older Victorians. We draw on the talents, experience and skills of our members and supporters while providing them with opportunities to enhance their existing skills and develop new ones. See some of our volunteers in action.
We welcome volunteers of all ages, backgrounds and levels of experience. To support their valuable contribution, we provide full insurance cover for volunteer activities and pay out-of-pocket expenses.
