CPL Volunteers contribute to our mission of an inclusive society for all people; extending social connections with clients, reducing social isolation; and enhancing CPL services by sharing skills, time and mutual interests. We are always looking for volunteers to come and join our team, so we'd love to hear from you!

Would you like to know what it’s like to volunteer at CPL? We have volunteer roles in companionship, sport, administration and much more!

Read all about it! Read all about it! It’s a fact, fiction is where it’s at!

Is there anything better than getting comfortable and enjoying a good book? What about the book turning out to be an amazing page turner? Oh yes that’s right, having someone else to share the thrill of the story with!

"Reading brings us unknown friends"€, as a social companion - reader at CPL that means on, and off the page! Take your love for literature to the next level and make connections with other bibliophiles in your community, join us as a volunteer today! If you’ve been looking for the opportunity to make time to read more, and you have a special interest in Romance literature, join us as a volunteer every week at a CPL's Ashgrove service and fall in love with your new volunteer opportunity today!

As the social companion - reader you will be:

  • Sharing your love of literature with clients
  • Conducting friendly, professional encounters
  • Reading out loud to clients on a weekly basis, from books chosen by the client
  • Encouraging and engaging service users to pursue and develop their hobby/interests

This volunteer opportunity will take place at a CPL's Ashgrove service on Mondays from either 10am to 11am or 2pm to 3pm.

You will be responsible for organising your transport to and from the location of this CPL role.

Make a difference and support people with a disability to live the life they choose with passion!
