Happy National Volunteer Week!

This week is National Volunteer Week (NVW) - an annual celebration to acknowledge the generous contribution of Australia’s many volunteers and Equestrian Australia has joined the celebration.

“This year’s theme of give happy, live happy is one that is embraced by equestrian sport volunteers on a weekly basis,” said Equestrian Australia Chief Executive Officer, Paula Ward.

“Volunteers are the lifeblood of our sport and during National Volunteer Week we take this opportunity to thank each and every one for the dedication and commitment they display both on and off the field of play,” said Ms Ward.
