Volunteers at the heart of our work
PSEC is supported by a group of loyal and enthusiastic volunteers, some of which have been with us for more than 25 years. Each year, our volunteers contribute nearly 65,000 hours to PSEC, the value of which is equivalent to just under $1 million.
Be a part of PSEC’s vital work
If you’re new to the area, feeling lonely or simply want to widen your social circle, volunteering is a fun way to meet new people from all backgrounds while making a genuine difference.
If you’re a student or between jobs, volunteering adds great skills to your CV. No matter what motivates you to join the team, we’ll look forward to welcoming you to our next volunteer’s event!
Our volunteers are people helping people

Volunteer for us
We need more great people to join our volunteer team. You’ll make new friends, learn new skills and be part of social change in the lives of local people.
Wondering where you could help?
We have roles available at our Havelock North and Taradale PSEC Charity Shops. Play to your strengths and try something new at Enliven Disability and Enliven Older People services. Choose a morning or afternoon, or both, on a day that suits you.
