Expression of Interest for Volunteer Board Members

Passionate about social justice?

The Illawarra Legal Centre (ILC), established in 1985, is a non-profit organisation committed to promoting social justice and providing free legal support to individuals experiencing social and economic disadvantage in the Illawarra region.

We are looking for individuals with expertise in the following areas:

• Solicitors: We invite solicitors who are interested in serving on our board to contribute their professional insights and ensure the Centre’s work aligns with current legal standards and best practices.
• Treasurers: Individuals with experience in financial management and accounting are encouraged to apply. As a board member with treasurer responsibilities, you will oversee our financial practices, ensuring transparency and sustainability in line with our mission.
• Illawarra Locals: We are particularly interested in hearing from individuals who live in or have strong ties to the Illawarra region. Your local knowledge will be invaluable in helping the Centre better serve the needs of the community.

By joining our volunteer board, you’ll play an essential role in shaping the future of a vital community resource that has been advocating for access to justice for nearly 40 years. Your involvement will directly contribute to our work in supporting people who are facing systemic barriers to justice.

If you are passionate about social justice, have the relevant skills, and are committed to making a difference, we encourage you to express your interest.

Please send your CV and a brief cover letter outlining your experience and interest in the role to Louise Farroway at [email protected] by 20 October 2025.

We look forward to hearing from you!
