Become a Volunteer

COTA Tasmania has an active volunteer program with many interesting and diverse roles available to volunteers.

The volunteer program enables members to take an active part in their organisation and assist with its continued development.

Our program is designed to have a dual role.  It seeks to use the talents, combined experience and skills of our membership base while providing opportunities for volunteers to engage in tasks where they can develop new or existing skills and actively contribute to their organisation.

All volunteers are provided with a comprehensive orientation program and training is provided on the specific program or area of work.

We pay out of pocket expenses and provide full insurance cover for all volunteers.

Become a COTA Champion

Are you interested in upholding the rights and interests of older people?  Do you have good links with your local community?  Are you a good communicator? Can you assist in consulting with older people in your community?  Then why not become a COTA Champion in your local community?

COTA Champions are volunteers of COTA who seek opinions from and listen to the needs and issues of older Tasmanians in their local community.  This information is then provided back to COTA.

A COTA Champion is interested in upholding the rights and interests of older people, has good links with their local community and can assist COTA in consulting with older people in their community.

The COTA Champion initiative currently exists in the southern municipalities of Huon Valley, Southern Midlands, Hobart and Kingborough.
