Volunteers 

Welcome to our new volunteers Annette Trahair and Patricia Woods, drop in and make them feel welcome.

Thank you all the dedicated volunteers for contributing their precious time and the wider community for donating second hand items. These invaluable contributions provide necessary funds for small projects and community initiatives.

In order for there to be profits for community initiatives the opshop relies entirely on the generosity of our volunteers.

Volunteering is a great way to be of service and the retail environment provides volunteers the opportunity to meet local people, build new skills and gain work experience.

For more information about requesting sponsorship or volunteering, please contact Tahnee Bird, Community Development Officer cdo@goomalling.wa.gov.au or 08 9629 1101.
