🌟 National Volunteer Week 🌟

This year’s theme - Your Year to Volunteer - celebrates the power of giving back and the people who make our community stronger every day. We’re excited to shine a light on some of the incredible volunteers who bring heart, energy, and kindness to the City of Nedlands.

Meet Amelia, our first volunteer feature, and a wonderful example of what community spirit looks like. Amelia has been volunteering at Nedlands Library Service since January 2025, where she facilitates monthly Dungeons & Dragons sessions. For her, D&D is more than a game, it’s a space for imagination, choice, and storytelling that helps people understand themselves and the world around them.

She believes play is something we often lose as we grow older, and volunteers "because I know what it feels like to be unsure or alone, and I want others, especially the next generation, to have a place where they feel welcome. Once a month, the library becomes that space for guidance, creativity, and community".
