Welcome!

People who live, work, study and play in the Adelaide Hills give purpose to our work at Council.

Volunteering is an opportunity to partner with us so we can build connected and inclusive communities filled with resilient, active individuals across the Adelaide Hills.

Through volunteering you can make a valuable contribution to our community, share your skills or gain new ones, and get to know your community by connecting with new people.

Ways you can volunteer with Adelaide Hills Council

We are looking for volunteers of all ages, across a range of skills and different life experiences to directly contribute their time to assisting Hills communities.

Search our current volunteer vacancies below to find your volunteer match.

Hills Radio is a community radio station and registered charity run almost entirely by volunteers. We broadcast 24/7 via the internet from hillsradio.com.au and can be heard live and local in the Adelaide Hills and around the world.

Currently we have over 34,000 listeners and can be heard in over 190 countries. The station is located upstairs at Level 1/ 31 Gawler Street, Mt Barker with 2 studios and production facilities.

We have 50 members of all ages and from all walks of life volunteering in administration, studio presenting, music library, production, outside broadcasts and technical support. All volunteers are asked to become a member with an annual fee of $60 ($50 concession) and to obtain a National Police Check. We welcome volunteering enquiries from residents of the Mt Barker District, Adelaide Hills and Alexandrina Councils who are keen to give back to their community.

We, the Houghton Inglewood Hermitage Soldiers Memorial Park Committee (The Committee) have a big & bold vision for our hills community with a 2.5 million sports and community hub building at the Houghton Oval. The Committee has worked on developing a master plan for the last 15 years. Years of planning went into the design of the New Multiuse Community Facility and with everyone’s support we hope to be able to start building this year.

All committee members are volunteers, some working full-time, some semi retired. We are seeking people with specialist expertise in Marketing, Sponsorship/Fundraising to join our Committee as well as people willing to volunteer for specific events only.

Riding for Disabled Oakbank

Riding for Disabled Oakbank Centre (RDA Oakbank) provides specialised horse-riding programs and relationships with horses for mostly young people with physical, intellectual, learning and emotional disabilities. We have been operating since 1980 by local volunteers and are based at the Oakbank Racecourse in South Australia's picturesque Adelaide Hills. 

RDA Oakbank is one of 12 centres across South Australia that are formally affiliated with Riding for the Disabled South Australia (RDASA). As a member of RDASA, our centre is a registered National Disability Insurance Scheme provider.

Volunteer With Us!

RDA Oakbank holds lessons on Tuesday and Friday afternoons but operate 7 days a week to care for our small herd of horses and maintaining the Centre's grounds and equipment, as well as assisting on lesson days and carrying out administrative support tasks. 

We offer you the opportunity to learn new skills with RDA Australia accredited volunteer coaches, other trained volunteers with a diversity of skills, and trained and accredited RDA horses.

Fill in an application to volunteer or contact Frances Hardy on 0418851745 to find out more.  

Volunteer With Us!

Come and join us at The Stirling Players

Getting involved with a theatre group is unlike almost any other volunteering role.  For a start, there are no specific age, gender or skills requirements, and there’s a wide range of activities to get involved in.

What’s more you can devote a little time or a lot of time as your life allows.

Interested?

We would love to hear from you
