Whittlesea Volunteer Resource Service - Whittlesea Community Connections

The Whittlesea Volunteer Resource Service (WVRS) connects people who work, live or study in the City of Whittlesea to suitable volunteer roles and provides training to develop volunteer skills.

A comprehensive database of volunteer involving organisations is maintained so that we can quickly place local people in volunteer roles across the municipality and beyond.

We also provide support to not for profit organisations who need assistance with volunteer recruitment and management.
