Volunteer Program

WA Police Legacy recognises the significant contribution and immense value of our volunteers, who provide that extra care and support. Volunteers are involved with a variety of activities, fundraising, selling merchandise at events such as the Perth Royal Show, assisting at camps for legatees and other outings. Helping at functions and lunches or maybe just providing transport or visits to older legatees. It is their tireless work that helps connect our police legacy community and makes a positive difference to those we care for.

Our volunteers generally come from the police community, as current serving officers, retired members and/or their immediate families. However, if you are at least 18 years of age, an Australian Citizen and of good character, you can also apply. If you are interested in volunteering in any capacity, please contact us here to find out more.

Ambassador Program

Being a WA Police Legacy Ambassador is a prestigious position, appointed by the Board. Our Ambassadors support and promote WA Police Legacy in order to increase awareness within the Western Australia Police Force and wider community.

The responsibilities of an Ambassador include:

  • Attend speaking functions, talk to recruits or at other police events to positively reflect the role of WA Police Legacy, communicating its values and mission to support and care for legatees.
  • Participate in fundraising initiatives, by assisting with organising, promoting and/or facilitating events.
  • Representing WA Police Legacy when required, which may include website or other social media coverage (unless otherwise agreed).
  • Being a champion of WA Police Legacy to increase awareness and reflect the WA Police Legacy values.

A WA Police Legacy Ambassador may self-nominate or be nominated by a police officer, Board member or any contributing member of Legacy. For more information about the role of an Ambassador contact us here.

Although both volunteers and ambassadors are not paid positions, their contributions are highly valued and are personally rewarding. We encourage you to apply now and be part of this great team.
