Who can volunteer?

Our volunteers are an amazing group of people who range from 18 to 70+ years old! They come from all different backgrounds and bring diverse skill sets to our charity. We value the support of every single one of our volunteers and would for love you to join us!

Where are we located?

We offer volunteer opportunities in Adelaide at our head office (Woodville), our hospital-based offices (Royal Adelaide Hospital and Lyell McEwin Hospital), and at various events in central Adelaide and surrounds.

Why do our volunteers love being part of our family?

Sally started volunteering for THRF Group because she wanted to give back to support those who helped her through her own health battle. Sally lived with Type 1 Diabetes for 33 years and was on dialysis for two years. After four years waiting on the transplant list, Sally finally received a kidney and pancreas transplant to treat her diabetes!

“I was in hospital a lot and they helped me a lot, so I just wanted to give back.”

Sally, THANK YOU for helping us in the fight to save lives and improve care for people living with illness and disease, including diabetes.
