2022 Annual Celebration of Volunteers: NEW DATE
UPDATE: Due to the current wet weather conditions, we have made the difficult decision to postpone the Celebration of Volunteers previously scheduled for 14 May, 2022.
The Celebration will still go ahead as planned on the new date of Saturday 18 June, 2022. We'd love to see you there.
STAR Community Services and Volunteering Redlands are celebrating National Volunteer Week 2022, and we invite the whole community to join our biggest ever Celebration of Volunteers!
When: Saturday 18 June 2022
Time: 12pm - 5.30pm
Where: 146 Shore Street West, Raby Bay Harbour Park in Cleveland.
Volunteers are the backbone of a strong and resilient community like ours. They freely give their time, energy, skills and experience and passion to support their local community. Let’s get together and show how grateful we are of their contributions and also give them the thanks they truly deserve!
Come along to our free event to:
- enjoy a host of family friendly activities including laser display, live entertainment, food stalls and kids rides.
- cheer on the winners of the Volunteer of the Year Awards 2021-22
- explore the best volunteering opportunities in your local area and join the ever growing community of volunteers!
- have a great afternoon with your family and make some new friends!
