The Rockingham Volunteer Centre (RVC) provides support and a link between local community groups, sporting clubs and not-for-profit organisations with volunteer programs and local community members looking for a volunteer role.

If eligible, you club can receive: 

• free membership to the RVC 
• assistance recruiting event volunteers through managed advertising and promotion.

You may be able to access funding to support your event. Book a meeting to discuss your circumstances with the City’s Grants Officer on 9528 0333 or customer@rockingham.wa.gov.au. Visit Community Grants Program for more information.

Through our Disability Access and Inclusion Plan, we encourage the planning of all community events to ensure access and inclusion for all attendees. You can find out how to do this at planning accessible and inclusive events.

The need for permits and approvals will depend on where and when you are holding your event, and the conditions of your club’s lease or licence. To discuss your event, contact the City’s Events team at customer@rockingham.wa.gov.au or visit event approvals and permits.

To combat loneliness in the City of Rockingham we are piloting a Club Connector program.

Participating clubs can nominate one or more members who are willing to act as the ‘club connector’ and their role is to be the first point of contact for people wanting to join their club, but who may need an extra level of support – like a buddy system.

Each ‘club connector’ will need to provide us with the following information: 

• a photo
• contact details
• availability (this can be when they regularly meet at the club)
• something about them – whatever they would like to share that might make people more comfortable reaching out.

To learn more email customer@rockingham.wa.gov.au.

Our Blender Bike is a stationary bike with a blender attachment. It’s powered by the pedal-power of users. The blender bike is a great, low-cost way to engage people at events and promote healthy lifestyles.
