Is your organisation receiving expressions of interest from people wanting to volunteer to help with the current emergencies around the state? With the current situations, your team might not have the capacity to manage enquiries from the public wanting to volunteer. Invite people to register on EV CREW via emergencyvolunteering.com.au.tas. Their skills, location and availability will be recorded and they’ll be contacted if and when their help is needed. When your organisation is ready and you know what help you need, we may be able to source additional volunteers for you.
