Do you have time to volunteer?
We are so grateful that there are so many good Kiwis who are able to volunteer their time to help others.
Helping others makes us feel good ! One of the things that we, at Citizens Advice Bureau, hear from our volunteers is how good they feel after they have helped someone to find a solution to their issue.
If you have an issue that you want to talk about get in contact and our volunteers at CAB will do their best to help.
If you would like to find out more about volunteering at CAB give us a call or email manager.cabchch@gmail.com.
If you would like to volunteer but maybe CAB isn’t for you, there are volunteering opportunities everywhere. You can find details by looking at Volunteering Canterbury website, the local paper, SEEK, Do good jobs and social media.
Under 'Read More' is the link to Aged Concern Canterbury volunteers where they ask for just 1 hour a week to go and visit an elderly person who needs company.
