Volunteering at Minda
Join the Minda Community. Become a volunteer!
Here at Minda, we are all about community, the people we support, our staff, volunteers, students, and our neighbours.
Volunteering at Minda is primarily about people enriching and empowering the lives of people with disability, however as a volunteer you’ll have the opportunity to develop and expand your skill base, meet new people, explore career development, and discover training opportunities.
We are so grateful for the support of volunteers. We couldn’t achieve what we do without you!
Current Volunteer Vacancies
We need volunteers for all sorts of things - if you don't see your interest here, please contact us as we can find something for you!

Attention senior retired (not too serious) musos...
We are a voluntary group of four named The Village Players (check us out on FaceBook). We consist of 2 rhythm ukuleles, bass, and vocalist. We are looking for someone to provide melody e.g., harmonica, keys, accordion, guitar. Instrumental intros. We are the designated volunteer band for Minda and play monthly gigs for the people with intellectual disability, and staff. We LOVE it. The ideal person wants to have a bit of fun, provide a bit of fun for others, and be available to join our practice/jam sessions in Largs Bay on Tuesday mornings.

Help Minda build a more connected neighbourhood by sharing your skills, interest and passion with others and run weekly, fortnightly, or monthly inclusive activities. If you enjoy socialising, have a passion for community engagement, are committed to a regular pattern of volunteering and have good communication skills, we'd love to hear from you! From mums and bubs groups to a book club or needle work sessions - the sky is the limit!
YOUR ROLE: Facilitate inclusive activities or workshops from INC Cafe for our clients and the community to get involved in.
Volunteer types
Get involved by providing direct support. This may be supporting a person with intellectual disability, administration support, helping in the garden or on a special project.
Lend a hand with fundraising by Christmas Gift Wrapping in Adelaide Arcade or helping out at our events.
The benefit to our people and to the students who volunteer is an experience that both parties find extremely rewarding.
Our volunteer specialist will work with your organisation to identify a project that suits your team and of course, is of great value to the people we support.
