The Spectrum Social Group is on the lookout for volunteers to help out with its monthly cruises on the Brisbane Water.
The social group for independent adults on the autism spectrum conducts the cruises for approximately two hours one Sunday a month.
“This has been very successful with members enjoying a relaxed morning listening to music and taking in the views,” a spokesperson said.
“Each cruise is limited to five members at a time for safety reasons.
“We are in search of volunteers assist our skipper, Dave, with each cruise.
“This is a hands-on position and will include: operating the vessel; ensuring the safety and comfort of all on-board from departure to return; and controlling mooring lines.
“Experience is not required as volunteers can be given full training.”
The spokesperson said with the day cruises being so successful, the group is also looking to include evening cruises.
“If you are not available on a Sunday morning, then you may be able to volunteer for an evening cruise,” the spokesperson said.
“This is a great opportunity for anyone who loves being on the water and wants to give back to their community.”
If you are interested in becoming a volunteer contact David Kent on 0449 504 554.
