Do you live within the Mornington Shire or close by? And would you love to get involved in rewarding volunteer roles that truly make a difference to our clients?

Activities range from indoor to outdoor, music therapy, art and craft, adventure, community inclusion trips, and gardening groups.

Event volunteering is a fantastic way to get involved especially if your availability is limited! Volunteering with us for events is fun, rewarding, and memorable! genU hosts a number of events each year within the Geelong Community. See our listings to look through where we need volunteers for events.

We support you to apply, complete an easy online police check, and also chat with the relevant event organiser prior to the event so you have a good understanding of what help is needed and what your role would include.

Please sign up for an event if you can commit to the time of year specified!

Thank U
