Why volunteer with Chorus?
You’re not just taking a volunteer role, you’re becoming part of a community-driven movement. Your ideas, efforts, and energy will help create real connections between people.
Chorus volunteers work alongside employees, seniors, and those living with disability or who have mental health needs.
Volunteers help customers live independently and stay connected in their communities through activities such as gardening, transport, meal delivery, social outings, arts and wellness programs.
Chorus volunteers help customers avoid social isolation. When you volunteer your time, you:
- make a positive impact in your community;
- make a huge difference to someone else’s life
- meet like-minded people;
- form new friendships;
- challenge yourself;
- learn new skills;
We offer volunteering opportunities across Perth and WA, including Bunbury and Albany. Volunteer roles are available at each of our 20 Chorus Locals.
Chorus volunteers are encouraged to contribute whatever time they have available, from a few hours a fortnight to regular days in a week.
