If you are a volunteer

Volunteers work without being paid a wage or salary.

They perform an essential range of activities across many areas in our communities. Many of our organisations wouldn’t keep running without them.

Some of the areas volunteers might be engaged in include community care, sport, social justice organisations, land councils, health services, education or the arts. They might mentor, supervise, provide administrative support or serve as volunteer directors of organisations.

Our Volunteering pages contain all the information you need to make sure your organisation is compliant under health and safety legislation and that you are keeping your volunteers safe at work too.
