The Kāpiti Seniors Expo organising committee needs a helping hand to keep things on track behind the scenes. You'll work alongside the co-convenor, Sally Heppenstall, and other committee members.
Your mahi might include:
● Saving documents into Google Docs so the team can find what they need
● Helping the co-convenor keep track of budget records, including income like sponsorship, grants, and stall fees, and outgoings
● Joining fortnightly meetings, either in person or online, as your availability allows
● After the expo, helping with thank you letters and finishing off the budget records
This is a great way to build skills in admin, budgeting, and working with a community committee, useful for study, work, or just giving back.
Skills and experience
● Comfortable using Google Docs and spreadsheets, or keen to learn, support is available
● Organised and reliable with follow-through on small tasks
Behaviours and values
● Happy communicating by email and attending occasional meetings
● Comfortable working independently, or alongside another volunteer if you'd rather share the role
Cultural competency
● Respectful of older people's experiences and contributions to the community
A few hours every fortnight, from now until the expo wraps up in late November 2026. Meeting times are flexible and can work around study, work, or other commitments.
