Expo 2026
Our Exhibitors
On our Event Day you can browse among the tables and chat with each Exhibitor – anyone that may interest you. As you enter the Auckland Netball Centre you will be given a “Guide” booklet with contact details for each Exhibitor. Take it home, pass it around, and help your friends to get in touch, to learn about how to volunteer.
To help you find a good “fit” each Exhibitor will display a “badge”, shown below in red. On this page you can click of the “+” to see more about each Exhibitor.

Conservation Volunteers New Zealand works across Auckland to restore native habitats, improve waterways and connect people with nature. Through hands-on conservation projects, we engage volunteers in activities such as freeing up young native plants from invasive plants, predator control, working in our nurseries, and planting native species.
Volunteers can get involved by freeing up young native plants, joining our predator control programme, propagating seedlings in our nurseries, planting native species, and joining other community conservation activities. No experience is necessary, and opportunities are available for individuals, families, students, corporate groups and community organisations throughout Auckland.

Age Concern Auckland, a charitable organisation, serves those over 65, offering significant services across Auckland. Staffed by diverse, skilled individuals, it includes administrative, social, ethnic, ageing well, and intervention teams with health promoters, social workers, and counsellors, ensuring professional and safe community support.
Our visitors are volunteers who are keen to spend time with an older person for about an hour each week to enjoy conversation and shared interests and activities. Our volunteer visitors are from a variety of backgrounds and ages. What they have in common is warmth, friendliness and a desire to make a difference in the life of an older person.

We are a not-for-profit and teach English to migrants and people with a refugee background - we provide classes as well as volunteer home tutoring in all parts of Auckland.
Our vision is a cohesive society where our learners can settle well and achieve their goals. This includes feeling safe, a sense of belonging and being able to participate in and contribute to all aspects of life (social, economic, cultural and political).
Volunteer home tutoring: We are looking for volunteers to tutor people with a migrant or refugee background in English to help them settle successfully in Aotearoa New Zealand. Your commitment is to visit your learner once a week at home and tutor them for 1-2 hours.
We will support you to do this through comprehensive NZQA-approved training (free), ongoing support from a coordinator, and access to an online community of similar volunteers.
