Help When It’s Needed Most — Become a Trained Community Volunteer
Join the Volunteer Culture movement and be part of a coordinated network of everyday people ready to step up when disaster strikes.
When floods or fires hit, or crisis knocks — the people who step up are often just like you. Neighbours, students, parents, retirees. People who care.
Volunteer Culture is a community-driven program across Greater Western Sydney that connects spontaneous volunteers with the training, tools, and support they need to make a real impact.
Whether you want to help during an emergency, support local services, or build connection in your community — we’ll get you ready.
✔️ Free training (First Aid, Mental Health First Aid, Accidental Counselling)
✔️ Simple online registration and screening
✔️ Flexible roles based on your interests and availability
✔️ A coordinated system that ensures volunteers are safe, supported and effective
✔️ Open to everyone — all ages, all backgrounds, all abilities
