Volunteering is a great way to make community connections and gain hands-on work experience. However, over the last 12+ months volunteering opportunities have changed dramatically as businesses adapt to the coronavirus pandemic. The Skills and Job Centre recently caught up with Volunteer West, Wyndham City Council, Volunteer Geelong, Encompass Community Services and GenU to chat about volunteering opportunities in Geelong and Wyndham in COVID times.
