The week is a chance for all of us to celebrate and recognise the vital work of volunteers and to say thank you.

The theme for 2022 is Better Together which refers to the strength volunteering has in bringing people together; building communities and creating a better society for everyone. 

Western Australia has one of the strongest volunteering cultures in Australia. Each year about 80 per cent of people aged 15 years and over give their time for the good of the community.
