Wyndham Volunteer Expo.  

Students (and parents) may be interested in coming along to learn more about the principles of volunteering and prepare students for their volunteering journey (when the time is right for them).  Relevant to students is the fact that volunteering can provide a pathway to employment and provide them with experience and a reference to add to their resume.  Out of our 54 stallholders attending on the day, more than 20 of them have opportunities for young people 16+ in age. The rest do require a minimum age of 18+ (for insurance purposes) however this still provides great opportunity for students to connect with local organisations. 

On entry to the Expo, attendees are encouraged to watch a short video on volunteering.  Hopefully, this will prepare future volunteers to set them up for success and find the right role to suit their circumstances.  There will be more than 54 local organisations present at this free event.  Please encourage people to come along anytime between 10am and 2pm on Saturday 3rd May.
