VOLUNTEERING CENTRAL COAST
Volunteering Central Coast is an innovative not for profit organisation with a mission to enable
community engagement, inclusion and growth through volunteering.
We champion volunteering and we are continuously building our capability to support Central Coast community
sector organisations to grow their service capacity.
From our establishment in 1986, Volunteering Central Coast has become recognised as a leader in the recruitment
and referral of volunteers, and in delivering support and training to volunteer involving organisations.
Originally funded through various government departments to link people who wanted to volunteer with
organisations that suited their interests and skills, VCC has matured from being a referral agency to become a skills
matching service that offers a valued service to individuals and community organisations.
Our objectives are to:
Promote volunteering as a civic right of all citizens with particular focus on the participation of people living
with disadvantage.
Facilitate interaction, liaison and clear communication links between volunteers and volunteer involving
organisations.
Provide support and practical assistance through the provision of volunteer referral services, information and
training.
Resource, inform and support volunteer involving organisations to facilitate best practice volunteer
management.
Foster communication and cooperation with other community organisations with similar aims.
Attract, establish, train and maintain a strong volunteer base.
Today, Volunteering Central Coast is an integral and valued part of the Central Coast community referring over
1,200 volunteers to more than 110 community organisations each year.
Strategic Plan
In mid-2015, the Volunteering Central Coast Board developed a strategic plan with four key objectives which sit
under the four pillars: Profile, Clients, Quality and Sustainability:
OBJECTIVE 1: PROFILE | enhance our recognition, understanding and value in the community to attract and refer
volunteers from all walks of life.
OBJECTIVE 2: CLIENTS | grow our capacity to encourage and support best practice in volunteer management by
delivering targeted and effective services to members and prospective volunteers.
OBJECTIVE 3: QUALITY | improve our service quality by providing a centre of excellence in volunteer referral and
resourcing, education and training.
OBJECTIVE 4: SUSTAINABILITY | form collaborative partnerships to support ongoing business development and
financial sustainability.

CHAIR’S REPORT
Welcome to the Volunteering Central Coast Inc. 2016-17 Annual Report.
Our celebration of 30 years of Volunteering Central Coast, last November was a timely reminder of the valuable and
ongoing contribution this organisation has made to the community. This has been recognised at both State and
Federal levels of government who have now guaranteed our funding for the foreseeable future which facilitates our
plans to continue our strategic plan and explore other avenues of growth and to hopefully move beyond our
dependence upon government funding.
Volunteering Central Coast could not succeed without the assistance and dedication or our Co-ordinators and the
generosity of so many other people, not the least being our volunteers who give up their time freely to help run our
office and to facilitate other volunteers with their community interactions. It is these contributions that ensures our
continual and lengthy success.
However, it has not been a year without change. Phil Lammert vacated his position on the Board at the AGM, and we
thank him. In response to an advertisement for Board members, we were pleased that Lucy Milne and Barry Sale
applied and have now joined the Board. It is imperative for an organisation such as ours to continually invite and
appoint people of such varied experience and calibre to the Board.
Our executive officer, Monique Cardon left us in January 2017 for greener pastures. During her tenure she had
implemented and made necessary institutional changes which minimised the impact of recent changes to our
organisation. We wish her well in her future career. Jo Boccalatte with the able assistance of Donna Joseph and Toni
Trent kept the ship afloat while the Board found a new Executive Officer.
It is a measure of our value and perception in the community that we had over 20 applications for the position. In
late February the Board appointed Fiona Morrison into the position of Executive Officer. Fiona has a psychology
background and more than a decade of management and organisational development at both a local government
and community level. Her demonstrated ability and performance since her appointment provides the Board with the
assurance that she will expedite the implementation of our strategic plans.
Lastly, I would like to thank my fellow Board members whose values and expertise has made my position as Chair a
rewarding role. In addition to the new Board members Lucy and Barry, I express my sincere gratitude to Dyann
Prinsen, Jennifer Mackellin, Jenny Collins and John Rose. It is the ongoing contributions and commitments of your
Board members and the volunteers that will ensure another 30 years of Volunteering Central Coast.
TREVOR DRAKE
Chair, Volunteering Central Coast
25 October 2017
EXECUTIVE OFFICER’S REPORT
Volunteering Central Coast commemorated 30 years of volunteer recruitment and
referral in October 2016 – an incredible milestone for any organisation, particularly one with a wholly
government funded business model.
The current strategic plan (2015-18), was developed to target the transforming volunteer sector and aims to
clearly articulate its value proposition, contemporise its practice, and raise its profile. These became the
priorities of the months to July through December 2016 under the vibrant and tireless commitment of
Monique Cardon, Executive Officer during this period.
Monique was able to utilise the new logo and brand and modernised our promotional material including
the renewed and versatile VCC website and corporate video to support our profile building activities and
showcase these during the 30 year Celebrations and Volunteering Expo.
We fully embraced a low cost/no cost marketing and communication strategy and developed databases of
publications, local radio stations, local, state and national volunteer awards, community centres and local events.
We have increased the use of an interactive online presence developing the capacity of Facebook to reach a new
and younger demographic with over half of all the online enquiries being from people 35 years and under. Radio
stations played our community service announcements in the lead up to the volunteer expo and 30th anniversary
celebratory event.
The annual Volunteering Expo in 2016 was deferred from the regular autumn
schedule during Volunteer Week to spring to coincide with our anniversary and was
a great focus for the celebrations. The Expo was held during the day and the 30th
Anniversary had a special celebration event that evening.
We had 42 member organisations and one community organisation exhibit at the
volunteer expo on 15 November. Over 400 prospective volunteers attended the
event, and were able to register with VCC, attend our ‘Bridge to Volunteering’
information sessions, as well as meet with prospective volunteer involving
organisations to discuss the opportunities to get involved. Feedback from exhibitors
was excellent with most saying it was the “best ever” expo.
Profile building opportunities are leveraged wherever possible through speaking
engagements, expos, attendance at meetings and liaison with key stakeholders. We
continue to be involved with many interagencies across the Coast and this year formed collaborative arrangements
with TAFE, Compeer and Leep to deliver training relevant to volunteers and volunteer involving organisations, as
well as delivering training ourselves.
On Monique’s departure, our Recruitment Coordinator, Jo Boccalatte and the staff team maintained our programs
and operational capacity with great commitment, that enabled me to contribute to VCC immediately upon my
arrival as the new Executive Officer in March 2017. This was fortunate as there was a great deal to address.
Although I have had extensive experience in the community and volunteering sector over the years, the sector is
currently going though fundamental changes in how, what and why services are delivered. For example, the impact
of the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) has brought opportunities and challenges to the sector and
volunteering is being increasingly seen as a means of involving people with disabilities in their community to raise
their wellbeing.
In March VCC was facing uncertainty in all of its State and Federal Government funded programs, with each
undergoing review. We are fortunate that both levels of government have now committed to support the value that
our service provides to the local volunteer involving organisations, new and existing volunteers. We are now able to
continue to develop our ability to inform support, advocate and develop the volunteering sector on the Central
Coast.
During Volunteer Week in May 2017 we were able to showcase the wonderful diversity of opportunities to
participate in community life through local ABC radio featuring one of our member organisations each day of the
week to feature their volunteers and the vital role they play creating a strong and resilient community.
I have been engaged as a part of the sector development advisory group with Family and Community Services to
assist our member organisations to adjust to their Community Builders funding program transitioning to a ‘Targeted
Early Intervention’ approach with a new set of demographics that need to be involved in their services.
We have been awarded funding for our core Volunteer Management Program until June 2020, and we are hopeful
that the Federal Government values the Community Visitors Scheme sufficiently to retain the program in its current
form during the competitive tender process due for completion by December 2017 to transition all CVS programs
after the current contracts end in June 2018.
VCC has always been an active member of the NSW Volunteer Centre Network and the value of a network with such
a large footprint cannot be underestimated and was a strength in the advocacy to government for continued
support.
The three months of my tenure to 30 June 2017 were
challenging however, I am very fortunate to have the
resilient and talented staff team and volunteers who
together are committed in their belief of the importance
of volunteering. They are the manifestation of the
potential that can be achieved through participating in a
volunteer involving organisation and enable VCC to
continue to ensure its relevance and value as part of the
local community.
Thank you to the Board for welcoming me to VCC, for your confidence in me, for providing sound governance to the
organisation, and for proactively envisioning a strong future for VCC.

Acknowledgement of Funding Bodies:
Volunteering Central Coast acknowledges the following government departments for their continued
support.
RECRUITMENT PROGRAM REPORT
Recruitment volunteers cover an range of operational activities to support the Volunteer
Management Program (VMP) , including reception, administration, , organisational
support, computer update support, database development, interviewing and presentation of Bridge to Volunteering
information sessions.
Our monthly team meetings provide volunteers with an opportunity to update electronic office procedures and an
open forum for communication on any relevant issues affecting VCC. These meetings are used for education, team
building and problem solving across all areas
The recruitment team has increased in roles over the financial year to include telephone Interviews and to make
weekly follow to specific Member Organisations.
In the year ending 30 June 2017, Volunteering Central Coast received 1,261 volunteer applications by phone and
online.
Go Volunteer and Seek provided 616 internet inquiries (which are underpinned by the Viktor volunteer referral
database), compared with 674 in 2015-2016 (down 8.6%).
From 616 online applications, the recruitment team interviewed and referred 392 people (63.6%). 114 were from
out of area and were referred to other Volunteer Centres close to their residence and not referred to Member
Organisations. This number is consistent with last year’s 111.
Referral Service Trends
During the course of the 2016-2017 financial year, 503 face to face interviews were carried out, and 616 extra
applications (via our online presence). 392 were referred on to member organisations and followed up fortnightly to
ensure contact with organisations and ensure satisfaction one month after commencement.
Telephone interviews have been made possible via increasing the Recruitment Team from 12 to 18 members to
assure better referral contact between the Prospective Volunteers and Member Organisation. The Recruitment
Team now provided an opportunity of a phone interview to these online applicants in order to confirm details and
be referred on. The core Recruitment Team of 12 has remained constant to ensure the extra service procedures but
the extra volunteers have been transient, finding employment after short periods of helpful input).

114 applications were from out of the area were referred to other volunteer organisations. This is consistent with
the past two years (111 were out of area annually). These clients were all referred. A total of 1,009 applicants were
assisted across the Central Coast.
Of the 1,009 interviews carried out, 895 (88.7%) of the clients were successfully referred to volunteer positions.
Volunteers were referred to mainly community, health or welfare organisations (84%).
Bridge to Volunteering
Bridge to Volunteering (B2V) is a general information session, designed to give prospective volunteers relevant
information to enable them to make informed choices about volunteering. These sessions are not compulsory;
however, they increase prospective volunteers’ knowledge of the rights and responsibilities of being a volunteer. If
people would like to continue on the volunteering pathway after attending an information session they are booked
into an interview time slot.
A total of 399 prospective volunteers attended one of our 54 Bridge to Volunteering
information sessions across all 7 locations, averaging 7 attendees at each session. The top
three B2V locations by bookings were North Gosford, Wyong and Woy Woy This
represents a reduction-of 24% from last year. The drop in numbers can be attributed to
our online presence, through which, people can discover as information, including our
promotional video used in the B2V session.
More than half of the 681people interview conducted between July 2016 and
June 2017, advised that they had attended a B2V session.
We received 178 returned evaluations of the session, in which 99.9% of people
indicated that their needs were met, 88% above satisfactory and 17% satisfactory.
Interviews: Face to Face
Interviews are coordinated through our office at North Gosford with outreach centres being utilised weekly at: Woy
Woy, Green Point, Tuggerah, Kanwal and The Entrance. Lake Munmorah has been added as fortnightly as a trial. The
most popular Interview location was North Gosford (130), Kanwal (104) and then Woy Woy (103).
From 645 interview bookings, the recruitment team interviewed Face to Face 78% compared with 82.5% the
previous year. Cancellations (11%) were up on the previous year (3%).

Susan, a long standing VMP
volunteer, still does our Wyong
B2V Information Sessions once a
month.
Interviews: Telephone
Since September 2016 the Recruitment Team has introduced inviting clients applying for roles online (via Viktor) to
make a Face to Face Interview or Telephone Interview.
The benefit of this approach is that those that come through have a more engaged relationship with Volunteering
Central Coast and will feed back their progress in obtaining their chosen role. Due to the additional initial contact
missing details (statistical and relevant experience) can also be gathered to match the information obtained via Face
to Face interviews.
This development of telephone Interviews has been an aim since VCC started receiving online applications. This
development was due to the team growth in numbers and training and having the capacity to do so. It also
followed the streamlining of operations and processes to manage the volume of on-line inquiries / applications.
Each prospective volunteer was followed up by the recruitment team to ensure they had been contacted by the
member organisation to which they have been referred, and to confirm after they have commenced that they are
satisfied in their roles.
Member organisations were contacted quarterly to check on the accuracy of contact information and the currency
of volunteer positions on the system.
The following graphs and tables break down the statistics of volunteers by various characteristics.

COMMUNITY VISITORS SCHEME (CVS) REPORT
The Community Visitors Scheme has been operating for 25 years in Australia. The scheme,
which is administrated by the Department of Health, is currently undergoing a review and
potential changes to the scheme could be implemented in 2018. The heart of the scheme is
friendship and wellbeing. Friendship between a resident living in aged care and a volunteer
visitor.
Age care facilities are undergoing rapid growth and many smaller facilities are expanding their capacity. The type of
resident entering care is also changing with an increase in very unwell residents requiring palliative support. The
impact for volunteers is often shortened time together and dealing with the passing away of their friend within a
year of meeting. For most volunteers this a very challenging time.
Research indicates that residents living in aged care experience higher rates of depression compared to similar aged
adults living in the community. As we live longer the rates of dementia are also increasing with 26,000 new cases
diagnosed annually in NSW. It is estimated that by 2033 the total number of cases in NSW will be 341,000. Greater
support and ongoing training for volunteers is necessary to meet this demand.
49 52 Volunteers Residents
16 1084 Aged Care Homes Visits
Volunteers
The scheme attracts a wonderful array of caring, vibrant and big-hearted people from all ages and backgrounds.
They all hold something in common and that is to make a difference in the life of an older person living in aged care.
Such social interaction and connection is proven to significantly contribute to a person’s wellbeing and reduce
anxiety and depression.
Volunteer visitors participate in a range of activities supporting the interests of their older friend. This may include
reading the newspaper, playing scrabble or cards, doing craft, reminiscing, walking in the garden and for some going
to the local shops or café for coffee. Volunteer visitors bring the ‘outside world’ into the aged care facility and
provide stimulation and diversion to the residents’ daily routine. The visitor often becomes a confidant and the
resident may divulge life stories not previously spoken of. Volunteers feel the time spent with their older friend is
very rewarding and a gift of time that they cherish.

I have developed partnerships with 16 aged care facilities on the Central Coast. The aged care staff refer residents to
the scheme and provide ongoing support and advice to the volunteers. They are very welcoming of the visitors and
recognise that the volunteers contribute to the increased wellbeing of the residents.

Congratulations go to 3 community visitor volunteers who celebrated 10 years of service. This is a monumental
achievement. Visitors graciously give their time to provide support and encouragement. They take time to listen
and provide hope, faith and strength .
Elizabeth, Bev and Allen celebrating 10 years of
community visiting
A personal highlight for me was presenting a session on Engagement ideas at the CVS State Conference in Sydney.
The attendees were co-ordinators from around NSW and it was a learning opportunity for all involved.
I would like to thank the other CVS co-ordinators in the Central Coast and Hunter region, the Aged Care Diversional
Therapists, my work colleagues, Fiona, Donna, Joanne and Monique (previous EO) and the VCC volunteers for their
support and wisdom.
Also thanks go to the CVS volunteer visitors, I genuinely appreciate and value their work. The volunteers tackle
challenges with compassion, humour and a commitment to building a strong friendship with a resident living in aged
care.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Volunteering Central Coast Inc. ABN 65 840 211 837
Notes to the Financial Statements
For the Year Ended 30 June 2017
1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The financial statements cover Volunteering Central Coast Inc. as an individual entity. Volunteering Central
Coast Inc. is an association incorporated in NSW under the Associations Incorporation Act 2009.
2 Basis of Preparation
The financial statements are general purpose financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with
Australian Accounting Standards, Australian Accounting Interpretations and the Associations Incorporation Act
2009 (‘the Act’).
The financial statements are based on historical costs, except for the measurement at fair value of selected non-
current assets and financial liabilities.
Financial Instruments
Financial instruments are recognised initially using trade date accounting, ie on the date that association
becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
On initial recognition, all financial instruments are measured at fair value plus transaction costs (except for
instruments measured at fair value through profit or loss where transaction costs are expensed as incurred).
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed of determinable payments that are not
quoted in an active market. They arise principally through the provision of goods and services to customers but
also incorporate other types of contractual monetary assets.
After initial recognition these are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision
for impairment. Any change in their value is recognised in profit or loss.
The association’s trade and most other receivables fall into this category of financial instruments.
Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is considered immaterial.
Significant receivables are considered for impairment on an individual asset basis when they are past due at the
reporting date or when objective evidence is received that a specific counterparty will default.
The amount of the impairment is the difference between the net carrying amount and the present value of the
future expected cash flows associated with the impaired receivable.
For trade receivables, impairment provisions are recorded in separate allowance account with the loss being
recognised in profit or loss. When confirmation has been received that the amount is not collectable, the gross
carrying value of the asset is written off against the associated impairment provision.
Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against other expenses in profit or loss.
In some circumstances, the association renegotiates repayment terms with customers which may lead to
changes in the timing of the payments, the association does not necessarily consider the balance to be
impaired, however assessment is made on a case-by-case basis.
Available-for-sale financial assets
Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that do not qualify for inclusion in any of
the other categories of financial assets. The association’s available-for sale financial assets include listed
securities.
Purchases and sales of available-for-sale investments are recognised on settlement date.
Available-for-sale financial assets are measured at fair value, with subsequent changes in value recognised in
other comprehensive income.
Gains and losses arising from financial instruments classified as available-for-sale are only recognised in profit or
loss when they are sold or when the investment is impaired.
In the case of impairment or sale, any gain or loss previously recognised in equity is transferred to the profit or
loss.
Losses recognised in prior period statement of comprehensive income resulting from the impairment of debt
securities are reversed through the statement of comprehensive income, if the subsequent increase can be
objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised in profit or loss.
Available-for-sale financial assets
A significant or prolonged decline in value of an available-for-sale asset below its cost is objective evidence of
impairment, in this case, the cumulative loss that has been recognised in other comprehensive income is
reclassified from equity to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment. Any subsequent increase in the value of
the asset is taken directly to other comprehensive income.
Impairment of Non-Financial Assets
At the end of each reporting period the association determines whether there is an evidence of an impairment
indicator for non-financial assets.
Where this indicator exists and regardless of goodwill, indefinite life intangible assets and intangible assets not
yet available for use, the recoverable amount of the assets is estimated.
Where assets do not operate independently of other assets, the recoverable amount of the relevant cash-
generating unit (CGU) is estimated.
The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the higher of the fair value less costs of disposal and the value in
use. Value in use is the present value of the future cash flows expected to be derived from an asset or cash-
generating unit.
Where the recoverable amount is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised in profit or
loss.
Reversal indicators are considered in subsequent periods for all assets which have suffered an impairment loss,
except for goodwill.
Accounts Receivable and Other Receivables
Accounts receivable are recognised initially at the transaction price (ie cost) and are subsequently measured at
cost less provision for impairment. Receivables expected to be collected with 12 months of the end of the
reporting period are classified as current assets. All other receivables are classified as non-current assets.
At the end of each reporting period, the carrying amount of accounts receivable are other receivables are
reviewed to determine whether there is any objective evidence that the amounts are not recoverable. If so, an
impairment loss is recognised immediately in statement of comprehensive income.
Employee Benefits
Provision is made for the association’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by
employees to the end of the reporting period. Employee benefits that are expected to be wholly settled within
one year have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled.
Employee benefits expected to be settled more than one year after the end of the reporting period have been
measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits. In
determining the liability, consideration is given to employee wage increases and the probability that the
employee may satisfy vesting requirements. Cash flows are discounted using market yields on high quality
corporate bond rates incorporating bonds rated AAA or AA by credit agencies, with terms to maturity that
match the expected timing of cash flows. Changes in the measurement of the liability are recognised in profit or
loss.
Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the association has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events
for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably
measured.
Provisions are measured at the present value of management’s best estimate of the outflow required to settle
the obligation at the end of the reporting year. The discount rate used is a pre-tax rate that reflects current
market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The increase in the
provision due to the unwinding of the discount is taken to finance costs in the statement of other
comprehensive income.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprises cash on hand, demand deposits and short-term investments which are
readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.
Bank overdrafts also form part of cash equivalents for the purpose of the statement of cash flows and are
presented within current liabilities on the balance sheet.
Revenue and Other Income
Revenue is recognised when the amount of the revenue can be measured reliably, it is probable that economic
benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the association and specific criteria relating to the type of
revenue as noted below, has been satisfied.
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and is presented net of
returns, discounts and rebates.
Rental income
Investment property revenue is recognised on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease term so as to
reflect a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment.
Interest revenue
Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest rate method.
Rendering of services
Revenue in relation to rendering of services is recognised depending on whether the outcome of the services
can be estimated reliably. If the outcome can be estimated reliably then the stage of completion of the services
is used to determine the appropriate level of revenue to be recognised in the period.
If the outcome cannot be reliably estimated, then revenue is recognised to the extent of expenses recognised
that are recoverable.
Revenue from training services is generally recognised once the training has been delivered.
Subscriptions
Revenue from the provision of membership subscriptions is recognised on a straight line basis over the financial
year.
Accounts Payable and Other Payables
Accounts payable and other payables represent the liabilities at the end of the reporting period for goods and
services received by the association that remain unpaid.
Accounts payable are recognised at their transaction price. Accounts payable are obligations on the basis of
normal credit terms.
Goods and Services Tax (GST)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST), except where
the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office (ATO).
Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of GST. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to,
the ATO is included as part of receivables or payables in the statement of financial position.
Cash flows in the statement of cash flows are included on a gross basis and the GST components of cash flows
arising from investing or financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority
are classified as operating cash flows.
Comparative Amounts
Comparatives are consistent with prior years, unless otherwise stated.
Where a change in comparatives has also affected the opening retained earnings previously presented in
comparative period, an opening statement of financial position at the earliest date of the comparative period
has been presented.

Volunteering Central Coast Inc.
ABN: 65 840 211 837
Independent Audit Report to the members of Volunteering Central Coast Inc.
Report on the Financial Report
I have audited the accompanying financial report of Volunteering Central Coast Inc. (the Association), which
comprises the statement of financial position as at 30 June 2017 and the statement of comprehensive income,
statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the year then ended, notes comprising a summary of
significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the statement by members of the Board.
Board Members’ Responsibility for the Financial Report
The Board of the Association is responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view
in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (including the Australian Accounting Interpretations) and the
Associations Incorporation Act 2009 and for such internal control as the Board determines is necessary to enable the
preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether
due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
My responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on my audit. I conducted my audit in
accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Those standards require that I comply with relevant ethical
requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial report is free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial
report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risk of material
misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor
considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in order to
design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion
on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of
accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the Board, as well as evaluating
the overall presentation of the financial report.
I believe the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis my audit opinion.
Auditor’s Opinion
In my opinion:
The financial report of Volunteering Central Coast Inc. is in accordance with the Associations Incorporation Act 2009
including:
i. Giving a true and fair view of the Association’s financial position as at 30 June 2017 and of their performance
and cash flows for the year ended on that date; and
ii. Complying with Australian Accounting Standards.
The financial report also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards as disclosed in Note 1.
