Volunteering opportunities

Join your local branch

When you volunteer in your local branch, you'll become part of the #WishForce helping children who are fighting serious illnesses by:

  • Getting active in your local branch meetings (held monthly)
  • Helping local wish families by capturing their child’s unique wish and bringing it to life through all stages of the Wish Journey
  • Supporting local fundraising and events, from fun runs and sausage sizzles to gala balls and bake-offs
  • Raising awareness in your local community, helping drive our reach and impact to achieve our mission.
