Roles you are applying for?

How often would you like to be rostered on?

The Winter Shelter operates from the 1st of June until the 31st of August Please indicate how often you would like to be rostered (e.g. weekly, fortnightly, etc). Where possible volunteers will be placed into teams. Ideally your commitment would be weekly or fortnightly to help simplify the roster. There is no minimum expectation for those offering to do night shift and it would be appreciated if volunteers filling other shifts would fill an overnight spot or two over the three months as these are the most difficult shifts to fill. Please advise us of any dates you know you will be unavailable.
