Volunteer
Change the World - start here!

Newtown Neighbourhood Centre runs diverse programs and services aimed at creating a just and inclusive community. These could not exist without volunteers dedicating valuable time and expertise. Our volunteers make a real difference to the community and we aim to make a difference to our volunteers. We provide an inclusive and supportive environment where people can gain skills, meet new people and contribute.
