A wonderful evening celebrating National Youth Volunteer Week with our incredible young volunteers at State Library of Western Australia.

It was a great opportunity to come together, recognise their contributions, hear their experiences and celebrate the positive impact they continue to make in our communities.

A big thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the event so special. Your enthusiasm, ideas and commitment remind us that young volunteers are not only the leaders of tomorrow; they are already leading change today.

Here’s to the next generation of volunteers and their year to lead! 🌟

We had a fantastic time at Curtin Guild O-Day S2, meeting students and sharing the many ways they can get involved with Australian Red Cross through volunteering.

A special thank you to our Youth Division Council (YDC) members for joining us on the day. They engaged with students, asking about the barriers they perceive when starting their volunteering journey. These valuable conversations will help us better understand the challenges young people face and how we can make volunteering more accessible, inclusive and rewarding.

As World Cup excitement continues to build, our team came together to celebrate through culture, connection, and a little friendly international rivalry. ⚽

Our Scottish colleagues treated us to a selection of traditional Scottish goodies and cultural keepsakes, while our Brazilian teammates brought plenty of passion, energy, and team spirit.

It was a wonderful opportunity to share traditions, learn from one another, and enjoy the global connections that make our workplace so special.

As part of Refugee Week, our Humanitarian Settlement Program (HSP) and In Search of Safety (ISOS) staff came together to celebrate the rich diversity that makes our communities stronger.

Staff shared delicious dishes from their countries of origin, creating an opportunity to learn about different cultures, traditions and experiences through food.

A wonderful reminder that by embracing diversity and fostering inclusion, we build stronger, more connected communities where everyone belongs.

A big thank you to everyone who shared a taste of home and helped make the day so special.
