Volunteer JPs are in high demand on the Coast

The NSW Justices Association is inviting volunteers to join the Central Coast team on one of the Community JP Desks.

Central Coast Justices of the Peace will hold their next meeting on Thursday, March 6, at 2pm in Georgiana’s Cafe, at the Central Coast Leagues Club in Gosford.

A spokesperson said JPs were always in high demand and serving the community on these JP Desks was a rewarding and educational experience.

The NSW Justices Association, established in 1911, is the peak body for Justices in NSW, and an advocate with the Department of Justice.

JP volunteers are covered by free voluntary workers and public liability insurance and also have access to free online training, and an available training manual based on the JP Handbook.

These training materials for JPs assist in completing the JP online 20 question knowledge test, required by the Department of Justice for all NSW JPs upon applying for reappointment.

Free JP services are available at: Erina Fair, Monday and Thursday 9am-1pm; Gosford Library, every weekday except Thursday 10am-1pm; Umina Library, Monday and Thursday 10am-1pm; Kincumber Library, Tuesday and Friday 10am-1pm; Erina Library, Wednesday 9.30am-1pm and Saturday 9am-12pm.
