On the eve of National Volunteer Week Warringah Council has announced a funding boost for local volunteers and organisations in next year’s budget.

“See the Change….Volunteering is the theme for this year’s National Volunteer Week and I believe more can be done to acknowledge the real change that is made in the community through the enormous contribution of individuals and groups,” said Warringah Council’s Administrator Dick Persson.

“Warringah’s volunteers come from all walks of life and volunteer in areas as diverse as bush regeneration, community safety, coastal management, cultural events, bushfire protection, surf life saving, sporting clubs and library services.
