The Byron Shire has an amazing diversity of organisations that need volunteers - from art projects to theatre, landcare, music performances and community events.

Everyone is invited to come in and wander through the stalls, you never know, you just might find something that captures your interest, inspiring you to become a volunteer! The expo will also incorporate the launch of the new “It’s a guy thing” program, which aims to encourage more young men to volunteer and engage in the community.

Doors open to the public at 11am, come on in and meet your neighbours.
