About VQ's Services

Introduction to VQ for community organisations

We believe that volunteering can be a very rewarding and beneficial experience for all those concerned - volunteers, community organisations and the community at large! Volunteering is the basis on which healthy communities are built and the means through which individuals can become involved and actively participate in their own environments and communities. This can be through sporting or leisure activities, social action or environmental groups, health and community welfare, education, emergency services to name a few.

VQ's Services Guide outlines our aims and the full range of services offered to organisations which involve volunteers including:

  • Volunteer Linking
