Founded by volunteers in 1970 by a group of caring and concerned citizens who wanted to ease the pressure on families in the community. Their legacy lives on today with over 300 volunteers supporting Family Life in all areas of our work.

Young and old, corporate volunteers or some who have never worked before; Volunteers help mentor and train our PeopleWorx participants, help in the opportunity shops as well as behind the scenes in the warehouse sorting donations. They can also be found in administrative positions, helping with our community events or providing support alongside specialist staff in our many programs and projects that work with families including our playgroups and breakfast, coffee and lunch clubs.

Volunteers offer their time, expertise and enthusiasm in various ways to provide vital support throughout the organisation. They become part of the Family Life family – they look out for one another whilst helping Family Life to help others in the community in which they live.
