Amazing Volunteers

In addition to our Committee, we also have a wonderful band of energetic and friendly volunteers who help run the Op Shop.

This is where the majority of our volunteer staff are employed, and they are the backbone of Rural Care Link Inc. operations.

We are always looking for new volunteers as we endeavour to expand our projects and activities within the community.
