Anyone woman who shares our vision and values can apply! We welcome volunteers from all backgrounds, as long as they are over 18 years of age and willing to commit to supporting women in our community.

However, please be aware that for your own wellbeing, if you have been a client of MSH or have experienced domestic abuse first hand, we request that you allow a two year period free from domestic abuse, before offering your time to volunteer for us.
