Hours:

Our neurological choir meets every Wednesday morning during school terms in a Central city location. We are looking for friendly volunteers willing to set up the room with tables and chairs, prepare and serve morning tea food and drinks as well as help with tidying and packing up afterwards. There is some flexibility if you preferred to attend fortnightly or have other commitments some weeks.

You will work alongside the other volunteers and contracted therapists who lead the choir. Our team will provide the food and give training to allow you to get to know the space and the people.

We have 6 sessions left this year with our Christmas concert being on the last week (3 December). We will start the 2026 Term 1 from the last week in January.

What is a neurological choir?
A neurological choir is a therapeutic choir for people with neurological conditions.

– Passion for helping people.

  • Respectful and considerate of our members and team.
  • Reliable and conscientious.

  • A police check maybe required
