Volunteering at the City of Whittlesea
Did you know Volunteering is good for you? Volunteering is a great way to make a difference in your
local community. Getting involved in volunteering not only builds the community, it can also:
• Reduce loneliness and isolation
• Increase your health and wellbeing
• Be a pathway to employment
• Lower stress
• Grow networks and friendships
• Increase your skills and knowledge
As part of the partnership between City of Whittlesea and National Ageing Research Institiute, 6 community volunteers have completed two training sessions at the outdoor exercise park near the Barry Road Community Centre Thomastown.
