Your Role as a Volunteer
By volunteering as a Perth Pals Event Host, you agree to:
-
Welcome guests and check people in at the door
-
Take a few casual photos and videos during the event using your phone (your phone is perfect!)

Aim for a few group shots, candid shots, and short videos (under 10 seconds)
-
Please respect everyone’s privacy—don’t capture anyone who prefers not to be included
-
Keep photos and videos positive and friendly to showcase the welcoming Perth Pals vibe
-
After the event, please email your photos and videos to hello@perthpals.com
-
-
Be friendly and inclusive — help anyone who’s new or on their own feel welcome
-
Represent Perth Pals in a positive, respectful way
-
Let us know ASAP if you can’t make it, so we can find a backup

Ideally help out at a few events — but there’s no pressure! You can say yes or no to each one
You’ll get free entry to the event you’re helping at.
You need to have attended at least one Perth Pals event before volunteering.
