We’re smack bang in the middle of National Volunteer Week, and it’d be rude not to give a shoutout to all the absolute legends who keep this district ticking. 🚒
From call-outs to training nights, maintenance runs, community engagement, the forbidden paperwork and everything in between there’s a whole lot that happens behind the scenes that most people will never see. And somehow our members still turn up with a laugh, a yarn and probably a questionable amount of instant coffee keeping them going….
Volunteering out here isn’t glamorous, but it says a lot about a person when they’re willing to give their time to look after their community and each other.
So to all our volunteers, thank you. For your time, your commitment, your patience, your good humour and the countless things you do without wanting credit for it.
As a little extra thank you, give a shoutout in the comments to a volunteer or a brigade you admire and look up to, someone who consistently puts in the effort in whatever way they can. It’s always good to recognise the people around us who quietly make a difference.
Thank you to all our Orana volunteers! We reckon we’ve got the best bunch going around. 🙌
