​At PICAL our organisation depends on  volunteers to provide services to the community.  We currently have around 100 volunteers.  An active volunteer is someone who completes a minimum of 1 shift per month.  Volunteers provide 400 service hours a week.

​​

Our volunteers come to PICAL for a variety of reasons including;

* To fulfill obligations to Centrelink

* To make a positive difference to their community

* To improve their social connectedness

* To give back to the service that supported them

​​​

​PICAL volunteers help in a variety of areas such as, reception, building and maintenance, pantry drivers, community garden, food pantry and casserole cooking.  ​​​

​​​

​We appreciate the generosity and involvement of our volunteers, with every contribution going towards making PICAL an even better resource for our local community. As a regular volunteer at PICAL you can join any of our Learn Local classes for free. 

​​​

It is policy for all volunteers to have a Working with Children Check (WWC) and a Police Check.  A WWC check is free.  The cost of a Police Check is $23.00.  PICAL asks the volunteer to pay for this cost.
