Volunteering Opportunities

Kempsey Shire Council values the contribution of volunteers. Many services would not operate so successfully without the commitment of people dedicating their time, energy and knowledge. Council has many opportunities for people wishing to be involved in some form of community activity. Some of the areas in which Council enlists the assistance of volunteers include:Visitor Information CentreCommunity HallsGraffiti BlastersLibrariesEventsParks and GardensVolunteering is a great way for everyone, regardless of their age, gender or background, to have a meaningful and positive impact on their community. Not only is volunteering a fun and fulfilling way to explore your interests and passions, it is also something that can benefit you as much as the community benefits from your contributions. Volunteering empowers individuals, enhances organisations and strengthens communities.If you wish to become a volunteer with Council, complete the Volunteer Application Form.
