Volunteer Service Awards

* Do you meet the requirement of 5 years or more active membership/service with Roleystone Theatre Inc.? 

It doesn't have to be cumulative, you just need to be able to show how you got to 5 or more!* Contact president@roleystonetheatre.com.au if you would like to be recognised for your membership and volunteer service by the WA Government!


The Department of Communities, WA State Government, seeks to acknowledge the significant efforts of Western Australia's volunteers through the WA Volunteer Service Awards program each year. The program recognises Western Australian volunteers who have provided 5 cumulative years or more of voluntary service. 


In 2022 across the state the awards program celebrated 173 extraordinary people for their significant contribution to the community and the Roleystone Theatre Inc. itself had 21 of those recipients. That was our first year submitting members for these awards and we put forward 21 nominations! 18 of those recipients had volunteered with Roleystone Theatre Inc. for 25 years or more, while 3 recipients had volunteered with the Roleystone Theatre Inc. for 50 years or more! We have since submitted volunteers each year.
